Chicken Souvlaki

1 teaspoon dried oregano, preferably Greek

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Juice of one lemon

1 teaspoon pureed garlic

½ teaspoon salt

2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes

In a medium bowl, mix the oregano, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic and salt until well combined. Add chicken pieces and toss to coat. Marinate for up to 1 hour in refrigerator.

While meat marinates, soak wooden skewers in water. Heat grill to medium-high.

Thread meat onto skewers. Grill the skewered chicken until cooked through, a 3 to 4 minutes per side. Drizzle olive oil over top before serving. Serve with tzatziki sauce if desired.

Serves three to four.
