Greek Chicken Marinade

Felix Long

Report

This versatile Greek Marinade is loaded with authentic Mediterranean flavors like garlic, lemon, oregano, and olive oil. The greek yogurt base keeps things extra moist and juicy on the grill. Use this for grilled chicken, grilled pork, grilled lamb, grilled fish, or grilled veggies!

Instructions

Combine all of the marinade ingredients in a bowl or jar. Whisk or shake, then pour over meat in a reusable silicon zip tight bag or a glass bowl. Marinate the meat for at least 30 minutes or up to 24 hours.
Remove the meat from the marinade and discard any remaining liquid. Grill until done then serve with grilled or toasted pita, hummus, tzatziki, cucumbers, tomatoes, and feta.

Notes

The marinade can double as a salad dressing as long as meat has not been added to it.
