I used to be a fan of Jeff Smith, the Frugal Gourmet, and have been making his Souvlaki recipe forever. I like to serve the grilled meat cubes inside warmed pita with hummus, red onion and red pepper. So yummy! I tend to make it in the summer time when I can use fresh oregano and mint from my herb garden! Read more If you use fresh herbs instead of the dried, increase the quantity substantially. I like to use pork tenderloin in this so that it's leaner. See less
Ingredients
- 1 lb. pork tenderloin, cut into 1" square cubes (You can use Pork Shoulder as well which will be juicier but also fattier) shopping list
- Marinade: shopping list
- 1/2 cup olive oil shopping list
- 1 cup red wine shopping list
- 1 tsp. salt shopping list
- Freshly ground black pepper to taste shopping list
- 1 tsp. dried oregano shopping list
- 1 tsp. dried mint shopping list
- 3 cloves garlic, minced shopping list
How to make it
- Marinate cubes of meat in a large bowl. Stir two or three times during a 2 hr. period. The longer you marinate the more flavour that is imparted so I tend to mix up the marinade in the morning and let the pork sit in it all day in the fridge.
- You can cook the meat cubes on skewers or I tend to just throw the cubes in my BBQ vegetable wok and do it that way. Cook until tender and just a bit pink or no pink, whichever you prefer.
