Souvlaki Ingredients

Method

Souvlaki Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Protein

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Add the cubed chicken or steak and mix well to coat. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Grill

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Thread the marinated chicken or steak onto skewers.

  3. 3

    Grill the Souvlaki

    Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the meat is cooked through and has nice grill marks.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, feta cheese, and Kalamata olives. Toss gently to mix.

  5. 5

    Warm the Pita

    During the last few minutes of grilling, place the pita bread on the grill to warm, about 1-2 minutes per side.

  6. 6

    Serve

    On each plate, place a generous portion of the salad, top with grilled chicken or steak skewers, and serve with warm pita on the side. Drizzle with Greek dressing if desired.
