Souvlakia Grilled Chicken

Inspiration: Boston Museum of Fine Arts Cookbook

The great thing about Greek marinades is you can basically use any protein with them, like lamb. You’ll also need to think long and hard about what you will serve it with. But I mean, it’s grilled meat. Serve it with wine and a smile and everyone will love you.

Ingredients

2 lbs chicken thighs 2 bay leaves, crumbled 2 tbsp olive oil 2 tbsp lemon juice 4 cloves of garlic, crushed 1 tbsp dried oregano 1 tsp Dijon mustard Salt and pepper, to taste

Preparation

1. Marinate chicken in a plastic bag with remaining ingredients for at least 30 minutes

2. When done marinating, grill over high heat, turning often so meat is juicy and tender on the inside

3. Serve with a greek salad or over rice pilaf
