This marinade comes from the Weber Grill Cookbook. It is a great marinade for grilled chicken. Remember, to prevent flare-ups when grilling, pat the chicken dry with paper towels before placing on the grill.

  • 1/3 c. soy sauce

  • ¼ c. olive oil

  • ¼ red wine, sherry, or balsamic vinegar

  • 1 tsp oregano (see note)

  • ½ tsp garlic powder or two cloves of garlic crushed/minced

  • ¼ tsp pepper

  • 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice (optional)
