Description

A tasty marinade for chicken kababs. I like to make a pita with it with fresh veggies and tzatziki sauce.

Ingredients

  • ¼ cups Olive Oil
  • 2 cloves Garlic, Minced
  • 1 whole Lemon, Juiced
  • 1 teaspoon Thyme
  • 1 teaspoon Oregano
  • ½ teaspoons Salt
  • ¼ teaspoons Pepper
  • 4 whole Chicken Breasts, Cubed

Preparation

In a large zip lock bag comine all ingredients for the marinade (everything except the chicken).

Cut up the chicken breasts into cubes. Put the chicken in the marinade. Massage the marinade into the chicken and put in the fridge for 20 minutes. Place the chicken onto skewers. Place kababs on the bbq for 12–15 minutes until cooked through and golden brown.

You can eat as-is or place the chicken into a pocket pita with fresh veggies such as lettuce, tomato, cucumber, red onion, feta cheese and black olives. Top with fresh tzatziki sauce.

I used dried herbs. I am sure you could fresh you would just have to use more of them.

I don’t have a grill so I just cooked the chicken in a little olive oil in a cast iron skillet. Very easy and yummy! I also used bottled lemon juice and it worked perfectly.

Ever since the first time I made this a couple of months ago, it gets requested on a regular basis. I’ve since tweaked it a litle to fit our tastes but a great recipe that’s also a keeper!

I made these for dinner and stuffed the chicken in pita with tomato, feta and tzatzkiki. It was fabulous I really can’t say enough about how flavorful the chicken is. I’m going to use this marinade recipe a lot! My husband was raised in a large Greek community and he said it tasted just like home! Its so simple too really spectacular! :)
