• 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

1. In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic, fresh rosemary, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.
