⏱️ Prep & Cook Time
- Prep time: 20 minutes, plus 30 minutes marinating
- Cook time: 12–15 minutes
- Serves: 4
🧾 Ingredients
- 600g boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut into 3cm pieces
- 2 tbsp Greek Seasoning
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- Juice and finely grated zest of 1 lemon
- 2 garlic cloves, finely grated
- ½ tsp black pepper
- Warm pitta breads, to serve
- Tzatziki, tomato, cucumber and lemon wedges, to serve
🍳 Instructions
- Add the chicken to a bowl with the Greek Seasoning, olive oil, lemon juice, zest, garlic and black pepper. Mix well, cover and marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 20 minutes. Thread the chicken evenly onto the skewers without packing it too tightly.
- Heat a griddle pan, barbecue or grill to medium-high. Cook the skewers for 12–15 minutes, turning regularly, until golden, lightly charred and cooked through.
- Rest for 3 minutes, then serve with warm pittas, tzatziki, chopped tomato and cucumber, and lemon wedges.
🍽️ Serving Suggestions
- Slide the chicken into pittas with salad and tzatziki.
- Serve with Greek-style roast potatoes for a generous family meal.
- Add pickled red onion or olives for extra tang.
💛 Why This Recipe Works
- Chicken thighs remain juicy over high heat.
- Lemon brightens the oregano, thyme and rosemary in the blend.
- The same marinade works well with halloumi or firm tofu.
🌿 Spice & Dipity Tip
For the best colour, wipe away excess marinade before placing the skewers on the hot pan—leave the herbs clinging to the chicken.
