INGREDIENTS
1/2 c Greek yogurt
1 Lemon, juiced
1-2 T Dijon mustard
1/2 tsp Garlic powder
1 tsp Cumin
1 tsp salt
-
½ tsp pepper
STEPS
Combine ingredients in a bag and add desired meat or combine ingredients in a bowl and add desired meat to marinade.
Note: This recipe is enough marinade for 4-6 chicken breasts or 1-2 pork tenderloins. The yogurt makes the meat super tender. This is perfect for grilling or even chicken on the stovetop for a quick dinner. Marinate 24-36 hours if you can but also helps to even do 6 hours if you forgot to plan dinner like me. I put in a gallon baggie but if you're plastic free, a glass container with a lid works too.
