I love souvlaki and this is wonderful and so easy!! I made it using boneless, skinless chicken thighs for a nice lunch. I had it with garlic bread and Recipe #425468. Thanks for sharing the recipe. Made for ZWT6

Simple, easy, and very flavorful. I used the broiler and know it would be even better on charcoal. Made for Zaar World Tour 6 on behalf of the Voracious Vagabonds.

Very tasty chicken. I added black pepper (personal preference) and left out the zucchini because I served it with squash oreganato - Recipe #428533. Thanks for sharing the recipe. Made for ZWT6.
