GREEK SOUVLAKI

Greek Souvlaki image

This is posted in response to a request for "skewer" recipes. A real coincidence as this was being prepared on the food network by Nick Makris from Nick's Diner in Regina Sask - it looked SO GOOD I just had to post it. Use pork or lamb - serving with pita bread is optional but tzatziki is a must! Prep time includes a minimum of 2 hours for marinating.

KITTENCAL'S GREEK SOUVLAKI (GRILLED SKEWERED LAMB OR PORK)

Kittencal's Greek Souvlaki (Grilled Skewered Lamb or Pork) image

There are many recipe out there for slovlaki, this is one I have been making for years and is a personal favorite, this can be made using lamb or pork, the secret to the marinade is the little extra bit of honey and the seasoned salt ;-) traditional Greek souvlaki is not threaded with veggies, but I like to add them on the skewers, you have the option of using them or not. Serve the lamb with toasted pitas and tzatzika sauce if desired please see my recipe#157176. Plan ahead the lamb needs to marinade overnight. You can also make these in the oven under the broiler, using metal skewers ONLY in place of wooden, turning occasionally. The vegetable amounts listed are only esimated you can use as many as desired on the skewers.

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1 lb. lamb leg or shoulder, cut into 1.5-inch cubes
1/3 cup olive oil, divided
1 tablespoon lemon juice, freshly squeezed
2 tablespoons garlic, minced
2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
1 tablespoon cumin powder
2 teaspoons salt (or to taste)
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
