So, you’ve marinated your steak to perfection, but now you’re left with a bowl of excess marinade. What should you do with it? Don’t pour it down the drain just yet! Here are some creative and safe ways to use up your leftover marinade:
Pro Tip: This works especially well with marinades that contain honey, soy sauce, or balsamic vinegar.
One of the easiest ways to use leftover marinade is to transform it into a flavorful sauce. Here’s how:
Leftover marinade can double as a glaze for your steak or other grilled meats. Simply brush it onto your steak during the last few minutes of grilling. The sugars in the marinade will caramelize, creating a delicious, sticky crust.
Pro Tip: Be careful not to apply the glaze too early, as it can burn due to the high sugar content.
Why stop at steak? Use your leftover marinade to add extra flavor to grilled or roasted vegetables. Zucchini, bell peppers, mushrooms, and asparagus all pair beautifully with marinades. Just toss the veggies in the marinade and let them sit for 30 minutes before cooking.
Pro Tip: Avoid reusing marinade that has come into contact with raw meat for vegetables. Instead, set aside a portion of the marinade before adding it to the steak.
Leftover marinade can add a burst of flavor to side dishes like rice, quinoa, or roasted potatoes. Mix a small amount into your cooked grains or drizzle it over roasted potatoes for a fun twist.
Pro Tip: Start with a small amount and taste as you go—marinades can be quite potent!
If you don’t have an immediate use for your leftover marinade, freeze it for future meals. Pour it into an ice cube tray or a small freezer-safe container, and thaw it when you’re ready to use it again.
Pro Tip: Label the container with the date and type of marinade so you can easily identify it later.
