Citrus Basil Sauce for Chicken or Shrimp

Citrus Basil Sauce for Chicken or Shrimp

Ingredients:
Orange juice
Lemon juice
Garlic powder
Dried basil
Olive oil

Directions:
1. Place the orange juice, lemon or lime juice, orange zest (if using), garlic, olive oil and basil in a small bowl or plastic container. Mix well.
2. *This recipe makes about 2/3 cup of sauce.
3. ** ***The chicken or shrimp should marinade in this sauce for ONLY 1 to 2 hours or the citrus will "cook" the proteins with the acids in the juices. It's not a huge issue, but it will alter the texture somewhat.
4. ***

This recipe will cover about 1 1/2 pounds of shrimp or chicken.
