Anti Inflammatory Greek Herb Marinade
Extra-virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, and apple cider vinegar form the backbone of this bright, herbaceous marinade — and each one brings genuine functional value beyond just flavor. Garlic, oregano, thyme, and cumin are all well-regarded for their natural compounds that support a low-inflammation lifestyle, so every whisk of this bowl is doing real work. The whole thing comes together in minutes with no heat required, making it one of the easiest ways to upgrade your weekly cooking routine. It works beautifully on chicken, fish, roasted vegetables, or even drizzled over a grain bowl before serving. The optional fresh parsley adds a pop of color and a clean, grassy finish that makes the whole marinade feel restaurant-worthy. Make a batch at the start of the week, store it in a sealed jar in the fridge, and you have a ready-to-go flavor booster for up to five days.
