Instructions for Chicken Souvlaki
Marinating the Chicken
1
In a mixing bowl, combine diced chicken with dried oregano and olive oil. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly. Marinate for at least 2 hours in the refrigerator to enhance flavours.
Preparing the Souvlaki
2
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Thread the marinated chicken onto skewers, arranging them lengthwise.
Baking the Souvlaki
3
Place the chicken skewers on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminium foil for easy cleanup. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, turning once halfway through, until the chicken is fully cooked and slightly browned.
Serve
4
Serve hot with pita bread, tzatziki sauce, fresh vegetables, and a squeeze of lemon for an authentic Greek experience.
