Chicken souvlaki is one of my favorite meals: grilled chicken, tzatziki, warm pita, and salad – I love this paired with a Greek salad or this special refreshing cucumber-feta salad.

Cooking Instructions

HIDE IMAGES
Step 1
Wash and dry the Boneless, Skinless Chicken Thighs (1.4 kg) . Cut the chicken into pieces roughly 2x2-inch pieces. Place chicken in a large bowl or a large ziplock bag.
Step 2
Season chicken all over with Kosher Salt (to taste) and Freshly Ground Black Pepper (to taste) . Crumble the Fresh Oregano (2 g) on top. Throw in the Fresh Basil (20 g) and Garlic (3 cloves) . Pour Extra-Virgin Olive Oil (as needed) into a bowl or bag to submerge the chicken. Place the bowl or bag of chicken in the fridge and marinate for four hours if possible but a minimum of one hour.
Step 3
When ready to grill, preheat grill to high. Meanwhile, dump chicken out onto a sheet pan. Skewer the chicken, trying to place similarly sized pieces on the same skewers if possible.
Step 4
When chicken is skewered and the grill is hot, grill skewers for 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a platter.
Step 5
Turn grill off. Place Naans (to taste) or pita on grill. Keep an eye on it – it should be warmed through and ready to go after 2 or 3 minutes.
Step 6
To make the tzatziki, stir together the Greek Yogurt (240 g) , Red Onions (20 g) , Fresh Mint (3 g) , and Garlic (1 clove) . Season with a pinch of Kosher Salt (to taste) and a splash of juice from Lemon (1) . Add more salt or lemon or anything else if necessary. Chill until ready to use.
Step 7
Add Cucumbers (260 g) , Feta Cheese (to taste) , and Fresh Mint (3 g) in a bowl. Toss with equal parts Extra-Virgin Olive Oil (1 splash) and White Balsamic Vinegar (1 splash) . Season with salt if necessary — the feta is salty, so go light to start.
Step 8
Serve chicken with tzatziki, a wedge of Lemon (1) and grilled naan. Enjoy!
