Balsamic Vinegar Marinade Recipes

THE BEST EASY BALSAMIC STEAK MARINADE RECIPE

Steps:

• Whisk together all marinade ingredients in a small bowl.
• Pour the marinade into a gallon zip lock freezer bag. Add the steaks, seal the bag, and move them around to coat well.
• Marinate for at least 3 hours and no more than 8 hours. (More may result in mushy meat.)
• Cook sirloin steaks as desired on the grill, or cook steaks in the oven like this.

ROASTED GARLIC AND BALSAMIC MARINADE

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a non-aluminum mixing bowl. Pour into a zip-lock bag. Add the steaks and marinate for 4 to 5 hours in the refrigerator.

BALSAMIC VINEGAR STEAK MARINADE

Steps:

• Mix ingredients and pour over 4 steaks; I suggest New York strip, porterhouse, filet mignon, T-bone or any tender cut. Turn often to coat well.
• Marinade for 1/2 to 1 hour.
• Remove and pat dry.
• Discard garlic. Place steaks on a hot charcoal or gas grill and cook until rare to medium.

BALSAMIC-MARINATED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Combine the vegetables in a large glass or ceramic bowl.
• Mix dressing ingredients and pour over vegetables.
• Stir well, cover and refrigerate for 6 to 24 hours, stirring occasionally.
• Cooking time reflects time to marinate vegetables.

BEST BALSAMIC MARINATED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Whisk balsamic vinegar, garlic, rosemary, honey, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Place pork in a resealable plastic bag and pour balsamic mixture on top to coat. Squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Place the bag in a container to avoid leaks, and marinate in the refrigerator 6 to 8 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Remove pork from the marinade and shake off excess. Place pork in a roasting pan or baking dish. Reserve marinade.
• Roast pork in the preheated oven until slightly pink in the center, about 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Remove pork from the oven, place on a cutting board, and cover loosely with aluminum foil. Let rest for 10-20 minutes.
• While pork is resting, pour marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes. Serve with the roasted tenderloin.

• Pour remaining Worcestershire sauce mixture over chicken in shallow dish; turn to evenly coat both sides of chicken breasts.
• Refrigerate 30 min. to marinate.
• Heat grill to medium heat. Remove chicken from marinade; discard marinade.
• Grill chicken 6 to 8 min. on each side or until done (165°F), turning and brushing with reserved Worcestershire sauce mixture for the last 5 min.

BALSAMIC MARINATED SKIRT STEAK

Steps:

• In a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish, combine vinegar, sugar, garlic, rosemary, 1 teaspoon coarse salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Pierce meat all over with a fork; add to marinade, and turn to coat. Let marinate at room temperature at least 15 minutes, or cover and refrigerate up to 1 day.
• Heat grill to high; oil grates. Remove steaks from marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Grill steaks 2 to 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer to a plate; cover loosely with aluminum foil, and let rest 5 minutes.
