Zesty Marinade for Meat & Vegetables

This marinade is jam packed with zesty flavor. In the photo is grilled flank steak & sliced red bell pepper strips that were marinated for 24 hours and charcoal grilled. Give the marinade a try on pork, chicken, or other veggies as well. What are you waiting for--fire up your grill!

Ingredients:
¼ cup brown sugar
½ cup lime juice
¼ cup cilantro, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons onion, chopped
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon ground ginger
½ cup oil
¼ cup soy sauce
½ cup worcheshire sauce

Whisk together all ingredients and pour over meat or veggies you'd like to marinate. Cover the dish and marinate for 12-24 hours.
