Marinade

Saute one chopped onion in one stick of butter.

Add:
1 cup lemon juice (Realemon works fine)
1 cup Zesty Italian dressing (Kraft)
1/2 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons black pepper
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tsp salt

Bring to boil and simmer 10 minutes.
Allow to cool.
It is strong, so no overnight marinade with this. It will have a substantial effect after only 15 minutes on chicken, beef and pork.
