Total Time: 10 minutes
Yield: Makes about 1/2 cup
This Greek-style marinade can be applied to any meat, but works particularly well on lamb. Let the meat marinate for several hours so the flavors can infuse. Double or triple the recipe if using on a leg of lamb or a large quantity of meat.
Ingredients:
• juice of 2 lemons
• 1/4 cup/60 mL olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon/5 mL fresh thyme
• 2 teaspoons/10 mL fresh oregano, roughly chopped
• 1 bay leaf
• 1 teaspoon/5 mL sea salt
• 1 teaspoon/5 mL coarse ground black pepper
Preparation:
Combine all ingredients and mix well. Use this marinade on all cuts of lamb. Plan on marinating chops and small cuts for about 4 to 5 hours. Large cuts (double recipe) like leg of lamb should be marinated for 8 hours to overnight.
If making ahead of time, store in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to three days after preparation.
Store mixture in an air tight container in refrigerator for up to 1 week after preparation.
