Teriyaki Marinade

  • Prep 5 min
  • Total 1 hr 5 min
  • Servings 8

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1/8 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
  • 1 clove garlic, finely chopped

Steps

  • 1
    In shallow glass or plastic dish or resealable plastic food-storage bag, mix all ingredients.
  • 2
    Add about 1 pound boneless or 2 to 3 pounds bone-in beef, pork or chicken, turning to coat with marinade. Cover dish or seal bag and refrigerate, turning meat occasionally, at least 1 hour but no longer than 24 hours.
  • 3
    Remove meat from marinade; reserve marinade. Cook meat as desired, brushing occasionally with marinade.
  • 4
    Remaining marinade must be boiled to be served as a sauce. In 1-quart saucepan, heat marinade to boiling, stirring constantly; boil and stir 1 minute.

  • Marinades add exciting flavor to meat, poultry, fish, seafood and vegetables! Mix marinades and marinate in glass or plastic containers or heavy plastic food-storage bags because these containers won’t react with acid ingredients like vinegar, wine or lemon juice. Plan on using 1/4 to 1/2 cup marinade for each 1 to 2 pounds of food. You can marinate all foods except fish in the refrigerator up to 24 hours; if you let it marinated longer, food can become mushy. Marinate fish only 15 to 30 minutes or it will become mushy.
