Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons Fresh rosemary leaves
• 4 cloves Garlic cloves
• 0.25 cup Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
• 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
• 2 teaspoons Coarse sea salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
• 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the rosemary sprigs and remove the leaves from the stems. Finely chop the rosemary leaves until they are very small and fragrant.

Step 2

Peel the garlic cloves and mince them or use a garlic press to crush them into a paste-like consistency.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine the chopped rosemary, minced garlic, olive oil, lemon zest, and lemon juice.

Step 4

Add the coarse sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using) to the bowl. Mix everything thoroughly to create a wet paste.

Step 5

Use the wet rub immediately by massaging it onto your desired meat, ensuring even coverage. For the best flavor, let the meat marinate with the rub in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or up to 24 hours before cooking.

Step 6

Store any leftover wet rub in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
