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

GREEK LAMB ON SKEWERS (SOUVLAKI) RECIPE - FOOD.COM
I spent a lot of time in Greece and this was by far my favorite dish. I love it served on a hot pita with marinated onions, tomatoes, and feta cheese; all topped with garlicky tzaziki sauce. I'm not sure where I got this recipe, but I've been making it for years with great success. Serve with fried calamari and French fries. Make a lot of tzaziki so there is plenty for dipping. Time to prep does not include the very important marinade time.

  • 1. To make the marinade, combine the olive oil, lemon zest and juice, oregano, wine, garlic, bay leaves and salt and freshly ground black pepper in a large non-metallic bowl. Trim the lamb and cut into bite-sized cubes. Add to the marinade and toss to coat well. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

    2. Put the yoghurt and extra garlic in a bowl, mix together well and leave for 30 minutes. If using wooden skewers, soak for 30 minutes beforehand to prevent scorching.

    3. Drain the lamb and pat dry. Thread onto 8 metal or wooden skewers. Heat the barbecue hotplate, and spray with the oil, cook and turn frequently for 7–8 minutes, or until evenly brown on the outside and still a little rare in the middle.

    4. Meanwhile, wrap the breads in foil and put in a warm place on the barbecue for 10 minutes to heat through.

    5. Drizzle the skewers with the garlic yoghurt and serve on the warm pitta bread with a green salad.
