Lemon-Basil Marinade

This marinade smells so amazing!! I can't imagine that this chicken won't taste as amazing, but I will update this post after dinner.

Well, I got my hopes up too high. The marinade smelled great, but I didn't like the flavor of the cooked chicken. Most people would like the taste, but I thought it was too tangy.

Lemon-Basil Marinade

1/2 c. olive oil
1 c. chopped fresh basil
grated zest of 1 lemon
2 large cloves of garlic, crushed through press
2 T white wine vinegar
1 T Dijon mustard

Whisk together and marinate 2 pounds of meat (poultry, veal, lamb, pork, or seafood) for at least a half-hour.
