1/4 c. packed brown sugar
1/4 c. soy sauce
2 tbsp. lemon juice
1 tbsp. salad oil
1/4 tsp. ground ginger
1 minced garlic clove

Prepare marinade by combining ingredients. Marinate beef or chicken at least 3 hours.

This is great for shish-ka-bobs using beef chunks or boneless chicken, or as a stir fry sauce.
