Almond Free Greek Herb Marinade
Bright, garlicky, and deeply aromatic, this Mediterranean-style marinade brings serious flavor to whatever you're cooking without any fuss. Extra-virgin olive oil forms the silky base, while fresh lemon juice and apple cider vinegar cut through with just the right amount of tang. Dried oregano, thyme, and cumin layer in that unmistakable Greek-inspired warmth, and the finely minced garlic ties everything together beautifully. A handful of fresh parsley stirred in at the end adds a pop of color and a clean, herby finish if you want it. Many store-bought marinades sneak in unexpected additives or are processed on shared equipment, so mixing your own from scratch gives you total confidence in every ingredient. It comes together in minutes, keeps in the fridge for up to five days, and works on everything from chicken and lamb to roasted vegetables and grilled fish. Once you have a jar of this in the refrigerator, you'll find yourself reaching for it constantly.
