Every cook needs a versatile marinade recipe in their back pocket. This one can be enlisted into service in multiple ways so you may wish to double or triple the recipe. Use it as it is used here to marinate chicken, but also try it with beef, pork, or lamb—even brushed on salmon before cooking. Store any unused marinade in a jar in the refrigerator to use as your go-to dressing for salad greens or as a flavor-packed sauce for cooked vegetables. Just be sure to discard any marinade that has been used on meat once you're ready to cook it.
