CHICKEN SOUVLAKI

Steps:

• Place the chicken in a bowl and add oregano, garlic powder, seasoning salt and pepper.
• Toss to coat.
• Marinate in fridge for at least 30 minutes -the longer the better.
• In the meantime, if you are going to use wooden skewers, soak them for 30 minutes. This prevents them from burning on the BBQ.
• Squeeze the lemon and then add an equal amount of vegetable oil.
• Skewer chicken onto wooden or metal skewers.
• BBQ chicken skewers until done.
• Mix the oil and lemon mixture until "creamy" and drizzle over the hot chicken - do this as soon as they come off the grill.
• Serve and enjoy!
• **on a side note - if you own a George Foreman, grill this recipe works very well on it!
