Pork Skewers with Greek Marinade

Cultural Context

Pork skewers, known as souvlaki, are a beloved street food in Greece, often enjoyed at family gatherings and festivals. Traditionally, they are marinated in a mixture of olive oil, lemon, and herbs, then grilled to perfection. This dish reflects the Mediterranean emphasis on fresh ingredients and simple preparation. Variations exist across the globe, with many cultures adopting their own styles, but the Greek version remains a favorite for its vibrant flavors and ease of preparation.
