Ingredients

Servings

¹⁄₄ Oil
1 Orange (juice of)
4 Limes (juice of)
1 tbsp Garlic (minced)
1 jalapeno (chopped, optional)
1 tsp Salt
1 tsp Cumin
1.5 tsp Oregano

Instructions

Mix together all ingredients. Pour over 1.5-2 pounds of chicken, beef, or fish. Allow to marinate for at least 2-4 hours for the best results.

*Since this is a heavily citrus juice marinade, I don't recommend marinating overnight as it could make the meat tough.
