Ingredients and Steps

Big text, no distractions — for the stove

Ingredients

  • Pork or chicken
  • Olive oil
  • Lemon juice
  • Oregano
  • Garlic
  • Pita bread
  • Tomato
  • Tzatziki

Steps

  1. 1Cut pork or chicken into even cubes and place them in a bowl.
  2. 2Whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, and dried oregano, then pour the marinade over the meat and toss to coat.
  3. 3Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least an hour, or overnight for deeper flavor.
  4. 4Thread the marinated meat onto metal or soaked wooden skewers, leaving a little space between each piece so it cooks evenly.
  5. 5Grill the skewers over hot coals or a hot grill pan, turning every couple of minutes, until charred on the outside and cooked through, about 10 to 12 minutes total.
  6. 6Warm pita bread briefly on the grill until lightly charred and pliable.
  7. 7Serve the skewers on their own with a wedge of lemon, or slide the meat off directly into the warm pita.
  8. 8Top with sliced tomato, onion, and a generous spoonful of tzatziki before serving.
