This marinade combines red wine, garlic, and herbs to tenderize and flavor red meats before grilling or roasting. The acidity of the wine breaks down tough fibers while garlic and herbs add aromatic depth, making it well suited for steaks, lamb chops, or kebabs. Let the meat soak for several hours or overnight for the best penetration of flavor.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup dry red wine
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 6 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

Method

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the red wine, olive oil, and red wine vinegar until combined.

  2. Add the minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, Dijon mustard, salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce, and whisk until the marinade is well blended.

  3. Pour the marinade into a resealable bag or shallow dish with the meat of your choice, turning to coat evenly.

  4. Cover or seal, and refrigerate, allowing the meat to marinate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for deeper flavor.

  5. Remove the meat from the marinade, letting excess drip off, and discard the used marinade before cooking.
