Souvlaki


We love gyros. Mike and Tony's on the Southside is our favorite. Obviously I don't have the equipment to make a gyro (nor do I want it). Souvlaki is similar.

I found a recipe and bought lamb for the first time this week. It needs to marinade for a long time but it sure was good. Mike really enjoyed this, Hayden did not. I don't think he liked the marinade. I served this with some warm fry bread,cucumber sauce and some greek roasted potatoes. I would have added feta cheese but I forgot to pick it up at the store.

We bought a piece of lamb and cut into about 1 in pieces.

The recipe called for this marinade:
In a bowl, put 1/2 cup lemon juice, 4 tsp olive oil, 2 Tbsp oregano, and 6 cloves minced garlic. I used less oil.

Marinate it for at least 8 hours.

Cook on the grill.

MMmmmm!
