Grilled Pork Souvlaki

Step 1

In a small bowl whisk together lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, oregano, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Place the pork cubes in a flat baking dish or Ziploc bag and pour the marinade over the cubes. Refrigerate 24 hours or more to marinade.*

Step 2

Preheat your grill to medium-low heat (300-350F). (You should be able to hold your hand over the grilling grates for 7-8 seconds.)

Step 3

While the grill is preheating, place the meat cubes on wooden skewers that have been soaked in water for 1-2 minutes.

Step 4

Grill the pork skewers for 4-6 minutes. Flip and grill for an additional 4-6 minutes on the second side. The meat is done when it has a nice sear and feels firm.

Step 5

Remove the skewers from the grill and serve with pita, fresh vegetables, and tzatziki sauce.
