Herbs and Garlic Marinade
I love my herb gardens and sometimes they overgrow so we need to use them up. I love to make pesto and it's easy to freeze in small containers.
I decided to make a marinade by using thyme, rosemary and basil with lots of garlic. I made this yummy chicken and I am sure you can find so many ways to use this. Go ahead and make it...
Ingredients
- 1 handful thyme
- 1 handful rosemary
- 1 handful basil
- As much garlic as possible
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground peppeer
- Extra virin olive oil
Directions
Cut your herbs and give a quick rinse. Remove thyme and rosemary from stem. Remove leaves from basil stem.
Add all of the herbs into a blender. Take your garlic and peel and rough chop then add into blender. Add about 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper (taste after to check if you need more). Pour in about 1/2 cup of EVOO.
Blend until you have a nice consistency. (You don't want it puree yet not chunky). If still chunky and dry add in a little more EVOO. (this depends on the handful of herbs.
Taste for any additional salt/pepper. Marinade perfect for steak, chicken or seafood!
Enjoy.
