Equipment

Ingredients

For The Skewers:

  • 750 grams (1.6 pounds) boneless pork neck cut into 2 cm cubes
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano + some extra for garnish
  • olive oil to brush before grilling
  • salt and pepper

For The Ladolemono Dressing:

  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 6 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  • Add the meat, 3 tablespoons lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon dried oregano to a bowl. Toss and mix to combine.
  • Marinate for 1 or up to 24 hours in the fridge. Take out of the fridge 20 minutes before cooking.
  • Soak the wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes.
  • Thread the meat on the wooden skewers. Don't leave spaces between the meat.
  • Pat dry the skewers to remove excess moisture from the meat.
  • Heat your grill or grill pan on high.
  • Drizzle the skewers with olive oil on all sides. Then season with salt and pepper.
  • Grill the Souvlaki for 8-10 minutes, flipping as necessary, to roast on all sides. But don't flip too soon or too often; allow them to char on one side first.
  • Prepare the Ladolemono while the Souvlaki is cooking. Whisk the lemon juice and olive oil until uniform. Or use a squeeze bottle and shake to combine both ingredients.
  • Serve the Souvlaki straight from the grill, drizzled with Ladolemono and sprinkled with dried oregano.
