1 1/2 c. salad oil
3/4 c. soy sauce
1/4 c. Worcestershire sauce
2 tsp. salt
1/2 c. vinegar
2 tsp. dried parsley flakes
2/3 c. lemon juice
1 tsp. pepper
1/8 tsp. minced garlic (optional)

For steaks the oil is the best. For chicken, use water rather than oil for less calories. Combine all ingredients in a glass jar. May be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator, covered, until used. Marinate meat fully covered 4 hours or longer. Broil on grill to desired doneness.
