Lupin Free Herb & Garlic Italian Marinade
This bright, herbaceous marinade is the kind of thing that makes simple proteins and vegetables taste like they came from a proper Italian kitchen. Extra-virgin olive oil and apple cider vinegar form the base, while fresh oregano, basil, thyme, and rosemary layer in that unmistakable garden-fresh depth. A hit of lemon zest and juice keeps everything lively, and a pinch of turmeric adds a subtle warmth that rounds out the whole blend beautifully. For anyone navigating lupin avoidance, bottled marinades and spice blends can be a real minefield — this one is built entirely from whole, recognizable ingredients with no hidden fillers or flour-based thickeners to worry about. The optional honey is a smart finishing touch if you want just a whisper of sweetness to balance the acidity. It comes together in minutes and keeps in the fridge for up to five days, so you can marinate chicken, fish, or roasted vegetables all week long without any extra effort.
