INGREDIENTS
Use this to marinate lamb chops; grill over medium heat until seared outside, pink inside. Let stand, covered, 5 minutes.
1/2 cup
olive oil
1/4 cup
grainy mustard
2 tbsp
Worcestershire sauce
2 tbsp
red-wine vinegar
2 tsp
dried thyme
Besides chicken and fish, this marinade is good with steak, tofu, or vegetables. In place of the vinegar and sugar, try mirin, Japanese cooking wine.
1/2 cup
canola oil
1/4 cup
rice-wine vinegar
3 tbsp
soy sauce
3 tbsp
chopped fresh ginger or 1 teaspoon ground ginger
2 tbsp
sugar
This spicy marinade might overwhelm delicate fish but is appropriate for just about everything else, including grilled turkey.
1/2 cup
olive oil
2 tbsp
fresh lemon juice
2 tbsp
Dijon mustard
1 tsp
red or green Tabasco sauce
1/2 tsp
crushed red pepper
Instead of dill, try finely chopped chives. Or substitute limes for the lemons. Use with chicken, fish, or other seafood.
1/2 cup
buttermilk
2 tbsp
chopped fresh dill
2 tbsp
fresh lemon juice
1 tbsp
grated lemon zest
2 tbsp
chopped garlic (3 cloves)
This vibrant marinade goes well with shrimp, scallops, and firm-fleshed fish, such as red snapper.
1/2 cup
unsweetened coconut milk
1/4 cup
coarsely grated shallot (1 shallot)
2 tbsp
fresh lime juice
2 tbsp
chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 tsp
chili paste
The yogurt helps keep chicken especially moist; add chopped fresh cilantro and ginger for deeper flavor.
1/2 cup
plain whole-milk yogurt
2 tbsp
canola oil
1 tsp
ground cumin
1 tsp
ground turmeric
1/2 tsp
ground coriander
