Ingredients
- 2 pounds rib eye steak sliced thickly, or 4 pounds chicken thighs (or any other parts you like)
- 1/4 cup white wine vinegar or lemon juice
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 teaspoons oregano

Instructions
- Slice steak. Mix marinade ingredients together in a non-reactive container like plastic or glass. Add steak/chicken, mix well, and marinate for 1-2 hours.
- BBQ Directions:
- Start your coals and when they have a light ash, add your steak/chicken and grill over hot coals until done (chicken is done if juices run clear when thighs are pierced with a fork and are no longer pink when slashed near the bone; for meat it is up to your personal taste).
- Broiling directions:
- Broil steak/chicken in the oven 6 inches below the heat source until done. Make sure chicken is no longer pink.
- Accompaniment:
- Fresh Tomato Salsa and Chimichurri Sauce
