Eggless Lemon Greek Herb Marinade

Bright, herby, and deeply aromatic, this Mediterranean-inspired marinade is built entirely from pantry staples and fresh herbs — no emulsifiers, binders, or hidden additives to worry about. Extra-virgin olive oil and fresh lemon juice form the base, while minced garlic and a trio of chopped oregano, thyme, and rosemary bring that unmistakable Greek countryside character. A pinch of turmeric and ground ginger add a subtle warmth that makes the whole thing feel a little more complex than a basic citrus drizzle. It comes together in one bowl with just a whisk, which means you can have it ready in minutes and stashed in the fridge for up to three days. The recipe is naturally free of eggs in every sense — no mayo, no emulsified dressings, nothing that could sneak them in — so it works beautifully for anyone navigating that restriction without any substitutions required. Pour it over chicken, lamb, fish, or even roasted vegetables, and let the lemon and herbs do the heavy lifting. Just remember to set aside a separate portion before the protein goes in if you want a gorgeous finishing drizzle at the table.
