Delicious Pork Souvlaki

Makes 4 Servings

Great as is or over a bed of rice. Perfect for grilling...

Ingredients

1 lb boneless pork
4 tbsp olive oil
4 tbsp lemon juice, freshly squeezed
3 garlic cloves (or more, to taste), pressed
1 tsp dried oregano
tzatziki, for garnish, homemade or store bought

Directions

  1. Cut pork into cubes about 1” square, discarding any fat.
  2. To make marinade, in a 2-qt baking dish, mix olive oil, lemon, garlic and oregano. Add pork pieces to marinade and toss to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  3. Remove pork pieces from marinade and discard marinade. Thread pork onto skewers. Either grill or broil kabobs until meat is no longer pink in the middle, roughly 4 minutes each side over medium heat.
  4. Serve with tzatziki on the side
  5. Alternative: Substitute boneless, skinless chicken breasts for the pork. You can leave the breasts whole or cut them into cubes or strips.
  6. Alternative: Substitute boneless lamb pieces for the pork. Thread onto skewers and cook as directed.
