Insanely Good Marinade

Plan Z Phase: This is a Z2 (ZReduction) recipe.

My husband loves this marinade. I used to marinate steaks in just soy sauce and olive oil with a bit of Worcestershire sauce but not anymore!

Servings: This marinade is designed for 2 pounds of meat. Can be doubled easily.

Ingredients:

• ¼ cup of olive oil or ¼ cup of water. (I’m not really worried about the olive oil in this marinade. Most of it is going to stay in the baggie you’re using to marinate your meat but if you want to be a Z2 purist you can use water instead and then just spray the meat with olive oil spray before you cook it.)
• ¼ cup of balsamic vinegar
• ¼ cup of Worcestershire sauce
• ¼ cup of tamari or coconut aminos (instead of soy sauce)
• 2 tsp of Dijon mustard
• 2 tsp of minced garlic (jar garlic will work or even powdered garlic)
• Grated sea salt and pepper

Instructions:

Get out your little blender or you can even make this in a jar with a lid or the baggie you’re going to marinate your meat in.

Add all the ingredients and blend. If you’re using a baggie, zip it shut and shake. Shake your jar with the lid on if you’re using that tool.

Marinate your meat for up to 4 hours. The more tender the meat the less time you need to marinate it. The meat can be a cut of beef, chicken, or even pork.

When ready to cook, remove from the marinade and proceed as usual.
