We had dinner with Liz and Tim (my sister-in-law and brother-in-law) tonight. I love when we plan a last minute Sunday dinner at their house because it is whatever the two families can throw together from their combined pantries. Sometimes it is pancakes and sausage while other nights, we are able to put on a serious Sunday feast. Tonight, Liz supplied the chicken and grilling team (go Tim!) and I provided the marinade. It's a just a simple citrus and herb combo that I'd recommend letting the meat sit in, but as this was a quick get together, Tim just dropped it on the chicken and grilled away!
Carina's Citrus Marinade
Throw together the following ingredients and let meat (chicken, pork, etc) marinade for an hour and bake or grill:
juice of 1 lemon

2 springs fresh rosemary (finely chopped)
