Greek Yogurt Marinade

Unlike acidic marinades like lemon and vinegar that can toughen meat, yogurt marinade tenderizes meat slowly and leaves it with a delightful browned coating once cooked. I recommend marinating for 12 hours + if possible, so try to prep your meat a day ahead.
What you will need
1/3 cup Plain Greek Yogurt
1/4 cup Olive Oil
1 Lemon
3 cloves Garlic
2 Tbsp Dried Oregano
1 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Black Pepper
