Ingredients

  • 1 cup Cabernet Sauvignon (or any deep red wine)
  • ½ cup olive oil
  • 1 sprigs Italian parsley
  • 2 sprigs fresh tarragon (1/8 teaspoon dried)
  • 2 sprigs fresh thyme (1/8 teaspoon dried)
  • 1 bay leaf (split in half)

Instructions

  • Combine all of the ingredients in a small container or jar with a lid.
  • Secure the lid and shake well to combine.
  • Store in the refrigerator until ready to use, or pour over meat in a glass or stainless container.
  • Cover and refrigerate for 24 hours before cooking.

Notes

  • Use a decent wine for your marinade since it is the main flavor, and you can serve the rest with the meal.
  • I used Dreaming Tree Cabernet Sauvignon, but any deep bodied red wine will work.
  • This marinade will work with any cut of beef.
  • I have included dried herb substitutions in the recipe just in case fresh are not available.
  • The Nutritional Facts assume that you are consuming the entire recipe which you are not.
