How to Make Lemon Rosemary Marinade

  1. Zest one lemon and juice it, reserving 1/4 cup of juice.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup lemon juice, 1/4 cup dry white wine, 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, the lemon zest, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1 bay leaf.
  3. Add your protein (approximately 1-2 lbs) to a resealable bag or shallow dish.
  4. Pour the marinade over the protein, ensuring it's fully coated.
  5. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours in the refrigerator for best results. For tougher cuts of meat, marinate overnight.
  6. Remove the protein from the marinade and discard the marinade before cooking.
