Greek Inspired Chicken Kababs

Always looking to use fresh ingredients. This, along with the "Greek Inspired Cucumber Sauce," grilled zucchini with thyme and some fresh grilled pitas (see below) are a great summer meal.

Ingredients:

2 large chicken breasts, washed and cut into 2" cubes

3 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano

1 tablespoon chopped fresh mint

1/4 teaspoon crushed hot pepper

1/3 cup Olive oil

2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

Salt and Pepper

Directions:

The night before, put chicken, oregano, mint, hot pepper, olive oil, vinegar, and a pinch of salt and pepper in a plastic bag or bowl. Mix and marinate overnight.

Next day, soak skewers (if wooden skewers) in water for 30 minutes. Assemble 6-8 pieces of chicken per skewer, making sure the pieces don't touch. Once you assembled all the skewers, salt and pepper each side.

Grill on a hot grill until done. Serve with cucumber sauce and pitas.

For homemade pitas, use basic pizza dough recipe and form into small balls and roll out into 6-8" 1/4" think pitas. Grill over low flame for 2-3 minutes until puffed and turn over for another 2-3 minutes until cooked through.
