Chicken Souvlaki
These delicious kebabs can be grilled on the BBQ or cooked inside so can be enjoyed at any time of the year. They are simple to prepare and taste delicious. Make sure you leave at least a couple of hours for the chicken to marinate.
Equipment
- Skewers
Ingredients
- 4 Chicken breasts
- 3 tbs tbs Dried oregano
- 1 tbs Dried mint
- 1 tsp Ground Coriander
- 1 tsp Smoked Paprika
- 5 tbs Olive oil
- 1 tub tzatziki to serve
- 1 pack Mini pittas to serve
- 1 Lemon to serve
Instructions
- Chop the Chicken into cubes to fit the skewers and place in a medium sized bowl
- Add to the bowl 4 tbs olive oil, 2 tbs oregano, the mint, coriander and paprika. Mix it all together until all the chicken is well coated with the marinade.
- Cover and pop in the fridge for at least 2 hours. If you're organised (unlike me!) you can prepare this the night before and leave in the fridge overnight.
- Turn the grill on high. Add the chicken cubes to 4 x skewers, put on top of a roasting tin and grill for 20 minutes, turning half way and adding any marinade left in the bowl to the chicken as you grill. Leave to rest for 5 minutes before serving.
- Lay the pittas on a baking tray and drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle over oregano. Grill for a couple of minutes on each side.
- Serve the chicken with the mini pittas, tzatziki, wedges of lemon and halloumi salad (recipe below). Enjoy!
