½ cup olive oil

1/3 cup red wine vinegar

¼ cup fresh lemon juice

¼ cup soy sauce

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

1 tablespoon ground black pepper

Combine the marinade and meat in a resealable plastic food bag, press out as much air as possible. Refrigerate for 2 to 8 hours or overnight, turning the bag occasionally to distribute marinade evenly.

Marinating Tips

Best to marinade in resealable plastic food bag, a bag will help to cut down on clean up and allow you to turn, to evenly distribute the marinade.

You can marinade in plastic, glass, or stainless steel containers, covered with lid.

Don't marinade in aluminum containers or foil, a chemical reaction could spoil the meat.

Don't reuse leftover marinade for other food.

Don't use marinade from raw meat unless its boiled first for several minutes.

Always marinade in the refrigerator, never at room temperature.

Tenderizing marinades penetrate about 1/4 inch into the surface of the meat.
