What it is

For best results, allow the food to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to a few hours for deeper flavor. You can then cook the marinated food using your preferred method, such as grilling, baking, or pan-frying. Discard any leftover marinade that has been in contact with raw meat. This marinade is also excellent for basting during the cooking process.
