Chicken And Pork Marinade

Instructions

1. In a medium bowl, combine the soy sauce, olive oil, honey, minced garlic, paprika, thyme, black pepper, and lemon juice. Whisk together until well combined.

2. Place your chicken breasts and pork chops in a zip-top bag or shallow dish. Make sure the meat is in a single layer to ensure even coating of the marinade.

3. Pour the marinade over the chicken and pork, making sure every piece is well coated. If using a bag, seal it tightly, ensuring to remove any excess air. If using a dish, cover it with plastic wrap.

4. Marinate the meat in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate. For best results, marinate for up to 24 hours. Remember to flip the meat halfway through the marinating process to ensure all sides are equally infused with flavor.

5. When ready to cook, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Remove the meat from the marinade and discard any excess.

6. Grill the chicken and pork until cooked through, flipping halfway through, approximately 6-8 minutes per side depending on the thickness of the meat. Make sure to baste the meat with the remaining marinade for extra flavor as it cooks.

7. Remove the meat from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute and ensures a tender and juicy bite.

8. Serve your perfectly marinated chicken and pork with your favorite sides like roasted vegetables, a fresh salad, or garlic mashed potatoes.
