Lemony Asian Marinade

Preparation time: 5 min Servings: 4 Ingredients:

1/4 tsp chili pepper flakes

3/4 tsp ginger, grated

1-1/2 tbsp vegetable oil

1-1/2 tbsp low sodium soy sauce

3 tbsp scallions, chopped

1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

Cooking Directions:

Combine all ingredients, stirring until well blended. Remember to always marinate in the refrigerator. Allow about 1/2 cup marinade for each 1 lb-2 lb of meat. Turn meat occasionally during marinating so that all sides are equally exposed to the marinade. For flavor only, marinate 15 minutes, or as long as 2 hours. For tenderizing, allow at least 6 hours. Remaining marinade may be brushed on the meat during grilling, or used as a sauce, provided it is brought to a rolling boil for at least one minute prior to serving. Makes about 1/2 cup.
