The Only Marinade You'll Ever Need

1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon hot pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt (kosher or sea salt), or to taste
4 strips lemon zest
3 cloves garlic, crushed with the side of a cleaver or minced
1/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh parsley
1/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh basil, cilantro, dill or oregano or a mix of all four
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil

Combine the lemon juice, hot pepper flakes, cracked pepper and salt in a nonreactive bowl (glass, ceramic or stainless steel) and whisk until the
salt crystals are dissolved. Add the lemon zest, garlic, parsley and other herbs. Stir or whisk in the olive oil. The virtue of this marinade is its
freshness: Use it within 1 to 2 hours of the time you prepare it. Stir again before using. Makes 1 cup.

Sounds delish!! Do you use it for meat, veggies, chicken,? I think it would taste yummy on veggie kabobs! I'll have to try it tonight! Thanks!
