Boost the flavor and tenderness of your chicken, steak or pork with ease and keep kitchen time to a minimum with these 15 Easy Marinade Recipes.
If you eat meat you know how monotonous eating the same protein over and over can get. That’s why we constantly strive to mix things up and add a variety of flavors to our meats by marinating as often as we can. After all, the purpose of a marinade is to flavor, tenderize and add more juiciness to meat at the same time. A wonderful side effect of all that magical prep work? Less time in the kitchen and more simple, but tasty meal options when you’re in a dinner jam and don’t know what to make.
The best part about having 15 Easy Marinade Recipes is that they’re not limited to just one type of meat. You can use them interchangeably between chicken, steak and pork so feel free to mix them up! And without further ado, let’s check out those marinades!
