Share:
Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken breasts
- Wooden skewers
- ¼ cup olive oil
- Juice from 1 lemon plus more for serving
- 1 tablespoons dry oregano
- Salt/Pepper
Instructions
- Cut the souvlaki in bite size pieces (not larger than an inch)
- In a plastic bag or a shallow baking dish add and mix all the other ingredients, add the chicken and mix well so that all the chicken is coated in the marinade. Cover and let it sit in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours. You can also soak the wooden skewers in water to avoid burning them (I forgot to this time).
- Preheat the oven at 350 F (180 C)
- Skewer the chicken on the skewers (I put about 6-7 pieces on each)
- Heat a grill pan or frying pan over medium to high heat and add ½ teaspoon olive oil to the pan. Grill for about 1 minute on each side. Remove from grill pan and place in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes. Grill the next batch and repeat. Chicken is ready when it has reached an inner temperature of 165o F.
- Serve hot with plenty of lemon.
