Chicken Souvlaki
- Replies 0
I have started making these from scratch again.
They are so much cheaper than already prepared ones and so much better in taste.
My family have asked me to only make these ones now. Hubby said they are the best chicken Souvlaki he has eaten
You can use either breast fillet or thighs fillet but to be honest thigh fillet is best .
Makes 18
10 min cooking time
15 min Prep time
Plus marinating time
If cooking on BBQ the soak wooden skewers in a bowl of cold water for 20 minutes before putting chicken on. This stops the skewers from burning.
Serving suggestions
Serve on the sticks with salad or vegetables of choice. I will also make potatoes or chips.
I have also made a lemon rice which I've added the recipe before.
I also use this recipe and serve the chicken with salad and tzatziki on Greek Pita bread
