KITTENCAL'S GREEK SOUVLAKI (GRILLED SKEWERED LAMB OR PORK)

Kittencal's Greek Souvlaki (Grilled Skewered Lamb or Pork) image

There are many recipe out there for slovlaki, this is one I have been making for years and is a personal favorite, this can be made using lamb or pork, the secret to the marinade is the little extra bit of honey and the seasoned salt ;-) traditional Greek souvlaki is not threaded with veggies, but I like to add them on the skewers, you have the option of using them or not. Serve the lamb with toasted pitas and tzatzika sauce if desired please see my recipe#157176. Plan ahead the lamb needs to marinade overnight. You can also make these in the oven under the broiler, using metal skewers ONLY in place of wooden, turning occasionally. The vegetable amounts listed are only esimated you can use as many as desired on the skewers.

Tips:

Choose the right cut of pork: Look for tender cuts like pork loin, tenderloin, or shoulder. Avoid leaner cuts like pork chops, as they can become dry when grilled.
Marinate the pork: Marinating the pork helps to tenderize it and infuse it with flavor. You can use a variety of marinades, such as olive oil, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and honey.
Skewer the pork: Use metal or wooden skewers to skewer the pork. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before using to prevent them from burning.
Grill the pork: Grill the pork over medium heat for 10-15 minutes per side, or until cooked through. Baste the pork with marinade or sauce while grilling to keep it moist.
Let the pork rest: Once the pork is cooked, let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.
