How to Make Garlic Lemon Pepper Injectable Marinade

In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup olive oil, 1/4 cup lemon juice, 2 tablespoons minced garlic, 1 tablespoon lemon zest, 2 tablespoons freshly ground black pepper, 1 tablespoon dried oregano, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 teaspoon paprika until the salt is completely dissolved.
Using a marinade injector, inject the mixture evenly into your chosen meat. Ensure the marinade penetrates deeply for optimal flavor.
Let the marinated meat rest for at least 30 minutes (or up to overnight in the refrigerator) before cooking. The longer it marinates, the more flavorful it will become!
Cook your meat according to your preferred method (grill, roast, pan-fry) until it reaches the desired internal temperature.
