Steps:
- Combine the sun-dried tomatoes, brown sugar, tomato sauce, and wine in a small nonreactive saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Immediately decrease the heat so that the sauce barely bubbles, and simmer for 1 hour, until reduced to 1 cup. Remove the mixture from the pan and cool to room temperature.
- Combine the tomato reduction, lemon zest and juice, oregano, basil, parsley, red pepper flakes to taste, salt, peppercorns, garlic, and vinegar in a blender or a food processor and process until all the ingredients are blended. Stored in a clean, airtight container, this will keep in the refrigerator for 2 weeks.

AIR FRYER "SUN-DRIED" TOMATOES
This past summer I found myself asking how I was going to preserve the abundance of grape tomatoes I had from my garden. Sun drying was the only thing I could come up with but problem was, there wasn't any sun. Air fryer to the rescue! I have a small air fryer so I wrote this up for 5 ounces (12 grape tomatoes) so that it would be easy to do in small batches. Store in an airtight container in the freezer for re-hydrating or pack in oil and store in the refrigerator for salads, soups, sauces, etc.

Tips:
- When selecting sun-dried tomatoes, opt for high-quality ones that are packed in oil. This will ensure that they are flavorful and moist.
- To rehydrate sun-dried tomatoes, simply soak them in warm water for about 15 minutes. This will soften them up and make them easier to use in your marinade.
- If you don't have any sun-dried tomatoes on hand, you can use fresh tomatoes instead. Just be sure to roast them in the oven first to concentrate their flavor.
- Feel free to experiment with different herbs and spices in your marinade. Some good options include basil, oregano, thyme, rosemary, garlic, and chili pepper.
- Be sure to let your meat marinate for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 24 hours. This will give the flavors time to penetrate the meat.
- When grilling or roasting your meat, be sure to baste it with the marinade occasionally. This will help to keep it moist and flavorful.
Conclusion:
A sun-dried tomato marinade is a delicious and easy way to add flavor to your favorite meats. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a marinade that will tenderize and flavor your meat, leaving it juicy and flavorful. So next time you're looking for a new way to cook your favorite protein, give a sun-dried tomato marinade a try.
