Italian Garlic Marinade Food

Spiedies, grilled skewers of meat marinated in what amounts to Italian dressing, are a culinary mainstay of bars and roadhouses in and around Binghamton, N.Y. What follows is a recipe for the marinade used to prepare them for the fire. I have used fresh herbs, though dried ones are more traditional, and have upped the flavor slightly with the use of lemon zest. Once you've got the marinade made, simply cut the meat - chicken or beef, lamb or pork - into 1- or 2-inch cubes, and submerge it in the liquid for a couple of days (10 to 12 hours for chicken), covered, in the refrigerator. All that lemon and vinegar does some work on the meat, and the result, when grilled over charcoal for four or five minutes a side, is a fantastical taste of upstate New York, and a very simple and excellent dinner besides. (Here are instructions for cooking them.) Serve with torn mint and an additional drizzle of lemon juice and olive oil, on top of Italian bread or alongside rice.

I made this up in an attempt to copy Lawry's Italian Garlic Steak Marinade. I usually sprinkle some seasoning (McCormick Montreal Steak is great!) over the steak either in the marinade or right before grilling as well.

I bought some marinated garlic recently and used it in some recipes... At first my wife was worried about the hole cloves of garlic in the dish but when she tried it she was hooked. I have since used it in several dishes replacing the garlic listed. I looked for some recipes here and didn't have any luck so I looked elsewhere and found this!
