My Favorite Marinade

I cut this marinade out of a magazine and glued it into my recipe book. I use it a lot because it is so easy and I usually have the ingredients on hand. It is great on chicken or pork; haven't tried it on beef.

Ready?

1 part soy sauce (I usually do 1/2 cup)

1 part maple syrup (so usually 1/2 cup)

Cover the raw chicken or pork with it and refrigerate for a few hours or overnight. Cook as desired.

A note on maple syrup: I usually use Grade B for because it is less processed and best for cooking. It tastes good on pancakes or waffles, too.
