Chicken Souvlaki with Tzatziki Sauce

Cultural Context

Originating from Greece, Chicken Souvlaki is a popular street food that showcases the vibrant flavors of Mediterranean cuisine. Traditionally skewered and grilled, it reflects the Greek love for fresh ingredients and communal dining. Tzatziki, a refreshing yogurt-based sauce, complements the savory chicken and is a staple in Greek meals. Today, souvlaki has gained international popularity, often served in pita wraps or as part of a mezze platter.

🥗Healthier: tofu

💰Cheaper: chicken thighs

Chicken thighs are more affordable and remain juicy when cooked.

1

Cut the thighs into bite size pieces, don’t cut them too small as they will dry out easily.

2

Combine everything for the marinade and mix well, taste to adjust the seasoning. Marinate the chicken in a ziplock bag for at least 30 mins in the fridge or overnight for best results.

3

Infuse the herbs aroma into the skewers by soaking both together for 30 mins.

4

Peel the cucumber and grate it. Add salt, set it aside for 20 mins to draw out the moisture.

5

Use a clean cloth to squeeze out all the cucumber juice.

6

Combine everything for the tzatziki sauce and taste to adjust the seasoning. Chill it in the fridge for later use.

7

Grill the pita bread with olive oil until golden brown and crispy.

8

Brush the chicken with rice wine before you grill, color the chicken with high heat then turn down the flame to medium low and cook until done.

9

Rest the cooked skewers on pita bread to absorb all the juices.
