- Lemon juice
- Pepper
- Lemon
- Juice
- Oregano
- Chicken
Directions
- Add the chicken to a large ziplock bag or mixing bowl with the lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Toss it all together until every piece is coated, then seal the bag or cover the bowl and refrigerate for 30 minutes, or up to 1 day.
- Take the chicken out of the bag or bowl, throw away any marinade left behind, and thread the pieces onto skewers.
- For the grill, heat it to medium-high. Set the skewers on the grate and cook for 6-8 minutes, flipping them once, until the chicken is fully cooked and no pink remains inside. Move the skewers to another plate and set them aside.
- For the broiler, heat the broiler and set an oven rack roughly 5-6 inches below the top of the oven. Arrange the skewers on a large baking sheet and broil for 6-8 minutes, turning them once, until the chicken is fully cooked and the centers are not pink. Move the skewers to another plate and set them aside.
- For the chicken souvlaki pitas, place a piece of pita bread on a flat surface. Add a few pieces of chicken, then finish with the toppings you like and tzatziki sauce. Serve immediately.
