Move beyond the same old steak or chicken you prepared last week with very little flavor. Try something new using a marinade for steak or chicken. Marinades are sauces prepared to flavor and soften meat. They are composed of vinegar, oil, spices and herbs. Marinades can be used on pork, chicken, steak, fish, and other meats. Prepare the marinade, let the meat soak a few hours or overnight then grill or bake and serve!
