Step 1 of 6
1.
Marinate the Pork: Cobine olive oil, lemo, garlic, oregano, paprika, salt & pepper. Toss pork cubes in marinade. Cover and chill for at least 1 hour, ideally 2-3 hours.
2.
Prepare the Skewers: Thread pork onto soaked skewers. Leave a little space between cubes for even cooking.
3.
Preheat the Professional PRO: Heat on medium-high direct heat. This grill is perfect: its even grill grates give perfect sear marks and allow quick cooking without drying the meat.
4.
Grill the Souvlaki: Cook skewers 3-4 mins per side, turning to get all sides browned and slightly charred. Meat should reach internal temperature 70°C and remain juicy.
5.
Make the Tzatziki: Mix yogurt, grated cucumber, garlic, olive oil, lemon, dill, salt & pepper. CHill until serving.
6.
Serve: Place skewers on a platter. Serve with flatbreads, tzatziki, cherry tomatoes, onion, and lemon wedges. Optional: drizzle extra olive oil over skewers.
