This easy Lemon Herb Marinade can be whipped up in 10 minutes. Zesty herbs and simple ingredients work together to elevate chicken, fish or pork.

Tips:

Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Choose fresh lemons, dry white wine, and aromatic herbs like thyme and rosemary.
Adjust the amount of lemon juice and white wine according to your taste preferences. For a more acidic marinade, use more lemon juice. For a more subtle flavor, use less lemon juice and more white wine.
Don't marinate the chicken for too long, or it will become tough. 2-4 hours is typically sufficient for chicken breasts or thighs.
You can use this marinade for other types of meat, such as pork chops or fish fillets. Just adjust the cooking time accordingly.
