Marinades

Well when Mark and Britteny came back from Germany a few weeks ago, we were eating dinner at my parents house and my dad was all worried the food wouldn't be cooked since he had to go to the store....gasp!! I had to remind him I am trained somewhat in this area ( 2 years of school so far) Anyway he was very worried about me marinating the chicken and was pulling out all the gross packed stuff that you add oil and vinegar to. Yeah, I know how to make my own without all the salt, but for some reason I am not to be trusted in my dad's beloved kitchen. So here I am proving that I can make several marinades and so can everyone else. You just need certain ingredients and then whatever you want.

The first thing is you need an oil of some kind, any will do, but extra virgin oilve oil is the best, then something acidic, and then whatever seasonings you want.

Cilantro-Lime (I'm not doing measurments for this, just make as much as you need depending on how much you are making)
extra virgin olive oil
lime juice
fresh chopped cilantro leaves
cumin
tiny pinch of red pepper flake
black pepper
oregano

Lemon-herb
evoo (annoying rachael ray saying)
lemon juice
fresh or dried of each
thyme
rosemary
oregano
garlic
black pepper

Steak (mike's favorite)
soy sauce
wochesshire(can't spell it)
chopped green onions
little brown sugar
ginger
pinch red pepper flake

Bob's philly beef
soy sauce
fresh garlic minced
red pepper flake

Oven fried chicken
buttermilk
franks red hot (any buffalo sauce)
soak chicken over night or all day
then bread in break crumbs, but i add
oregano, thyme
rosemary
cumin
