| Mediterranean Diet, Recipe

Ingredients

¼ cup olive oil
¼ cup fresh lime juice (about 2 limes, freshly squeezed)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
3 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions

Make the Marinade
- In a small bowl or jar, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and minced garlic until well combined.
Marinate Protein or Veggies
- Place chicken, beef, shrimp, tofu, or vegetables into a resealable bag or shallow dish.
- Pour the marinade over, ensuring everything is well coated.
Rest & Absorb Flavor
- Cover and refrigerate:
  - Chicken/Beef: 2–4 hours (up to overnight for deeper flavor)
  - Shrimp/Tofu/Veggies: 30 minutes–1 hour
Cook
- Remove from marinade and cook as desired: grill, pan-sear, roast, or bake until done.

Notes & Tips

Don’t reuse leftover marinade that has touched raw meat. If you want to use it as a sauce, boil it for at least 2–3 minutes first.
This marinade works especially well for summer grilling — tangy, garlicky, and savory!
Add chili flakes or jalapeño for a spicy kick 🌶️.
