  • Number of Servings: 4
Ingredients
Water, tap1/3 cupLow sodium Soy Sauce 1/4 cupOlive Oil, 2 TbspPepper, black, 1 TbspLemon Juice1 tbsp.Garlic, 3 cloves minced
Directions
Mix all ingredients together. Place meat of your choice in marinade. You can even add this marinade to a ziploc bag while the meat is defrosting. Let sit in refridgerator. The longer they marinade the better they are! I try for at least 5 hours but you can do it as much as overnight if you have the time. Remove from ziploc and place meat on grill. Grill for about 5-10 min per side depending on how thick your meat is and what kind of meat you've chosen to use. Will marinade 4 4-oz servings of meat. Meat is not included in calorie count so track that separately.

    I marinated pork steak with this recipe. It was so tender and juicy! I used a little of the marinade to toss in some veggies, which I roasted on a cookie sheet. I thought it was delicious! My husband thought it was delicious! He was amazed I used a recipe instead of instant! - 11/7/09

    We had this for dinner tonight. It was delicious. My husband is not a big garlic eater, next time I will only use 2 garlic cloves and see if it helps. - 11/2/09

    Made this recipe for a big party, we had shish-ka-bobs and everyone raved out how well the meat tasted and how moist it was. I actually let the meat marinade for 48 hours. Wonderful! - 8/14/10
