Pork Free Lemon Greek Herb Marinade

Bright, herby, and built around the bold flavors of the Mediterranean, this marinade is the kind of thing that makes a simple weeknight protein taste like it came from a proper Greek kitchen. Fresh oregano, thyme, and rosemary do the heavy lifting alongside a generous hit of lemon juice and zest, while a pinch of turmeric and ginger add just enough warmth to keep things interesting. Every single ingredient here is naturally free of pork and pork-derived products — no cured meats, no lard, no hidden animal fats — so you can marinate with total confidence. The olive oil and citrus emulsify into a glossy, fragrant coating that clings beautifully to chicken, lamb, seafood, or even hearty vegetables. Whisk it together in minutes, and it keeps in the fridge for up to three days, making it easy to prep ahead for the week. Just remember to set aside a separate drizzle before the marinade ever touches raw protein if you want that finishing flourish at the table. This is the kind of versatile, clean-ingredient recipe you'll find yourself coming back to again and again.
