Ingredients
2 tbsp Olive Oil
1½ tbsp Soy Sauce
1 tbsp White Vinegar
1 tbsp Fresh Lime Juice
5 cloves Fresh Garlic (finely minced)
1 tbsp Tomato Purée
2 tsp Brown Sugar
½ tsp Smoked Paprika
½ tsp Ground Black Pepper
½ tsp Onion Powder
¼ tsp Ground Cumin
¼ tsp Crushed Red Pepper Flakes (optional)
1 tbsp Fresh Red Chili (finely minced)
1 tbsp Fresh Cilantro (finely chopped)
Directions
- Whisk together the olive oil, soy sauce, vinegar, lime juice, honey, and tomato purée until smooth.
- Stir in the garlic, chili, paprika, black pepper, onion powder, cumin, red pepper flakes (if using), and fresh herbs.
Notes
- Marinating Time: Marinate chicken or pork for 2–8 hours, beef for 2–12 hours, and seafood for 20–30 minutes for the best results.
- Customize the Heat: Add extra fresh chili or crushed red pepper flakes if you prefer a spicier marinade.
- Best for Grilling: This marinade caramelizes beautifully over high heat, making it ideal for grilling, barbecuing, or pan-searing.
