Yogurt-Marinaded Pork

Linda Lou
Whenever I buy lean protein, such as skinless, boneless chicken or boneless pork cutlets, I usually marinate it to help tenderize the meat. Today I'm making Yogurt Marinade.

Equipment

  • 1 mixing bowl Large
  • plastic wrap

Ingredients
  

  • 24 ounces Greek yogurt Full-fat
  • 1 tbsp dried oregano
  • 1 tbsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper Optional
  • 1 tbsp kosher salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper Freshly-ground

Instructions
 

  • Add the Greek yogurt to a large mixing bowl. Add the spices, kosher salt, and fresh-ground black pepper. Mix to combine.
    Submerge the pork (or chicken), one at a time, making sure they're all completely coated. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours. Times may vary depending on the thickness of the meat.
    Once you've tried marinating this way, you'll be amazed at how tender and flavorful chicken or pork will be.
    There you have it, my Yogurt Marinade.
