Seasoned with a balanced amount of salt and pepper, this marinade guarantees a burst of delightful flavors in every bite. Elevate your grilling experience with this simple yet effective marinade.

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

  1. 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.
