Amazing Marinade

Things can get boring sometimes. Chicken... Pork... Beef... Fish... Repeat. When you are building a meal for a big family you have to make sure to keep flavors new and fun. If not the kids will be staring at their plate wishing they were anywhere else but sulking over a plate of pork chops.

This marinade is wonderful and with one simple step you take it from something simple to something insanely good! Here we go!

Marinade for meat (just about any meat and lots of veggies too!)

4 Tbsp Sesame Seeds (toasted in a dry hot skillet for 3-5 minutes until nutty brown)


They should look like this

10 Cloves garlic (smash these on the counter under a wooden spoon)

1 c Soy Sauce

1/2 c Apple Cider Vinigar

1 Red Onion (thinly sliced)

1 Orange (sliced peel and all)

Place meat and/or veggies in zipper bag and pour in marinade. Squeeze out all the air and leave at least an hour, but over night is best.

The secret here is the toasted seeds! It gives the marinade a nutty flavor and the oranges and vinigar give it a sweet and sour tang! It is a hit every time and is AMAZING on the grill!

Enjoy!
