Directions
Greek Souvlaki, This is posted in response to a request for “skewer” recipes. A real coincidence as this was being prepared on the food network by Nick Makris from Nick’s Diner in Regina Sask – it looked SO GOOD I just had to post it. Use pork or lamb – serving with pita bread is optional but tzatziki is a must! Prep time includes a minimum of 2 hours for marinating., Excellent flavor ~ made the best gyros we’ve ever had. I was a little concerned about the mint as I’ve never used it before in a marinade, but it didn’t over power at all. Served with pita pockets, feta and tzatziki!, Was looking for recipes that used mint. Even though it’s just April our mint is wild right now. Coincidentally we also had a pork loin ready to be cut up. So delicious and kept the pork moist. Served over rice with grilled peppers and onions. Will keep and use again. Thanks for posting!
