GREEK NIGHT

Chicken souvlaki is one of my all time favorite foods.. I love greek food, so a few nights ago I made a large greek inspired meal. No pics... but take my word for it, it was delish!

Chicken Souvlaki
One large chicken breast for each person eating (cut into large cubes)
4 lemons, juiced
1 tbsp minced garlic
1 tbsp italian seasoning

Marinade chicken cubes in lemon, garlic, and seasoning. Stick cubes onto skewers, tightly. Brush with olive oil and grill until cooked through.

Roasted Potatoes
8-10 small yellow potatoes, washed but not peeled, cut in halves or fourths
2 tbsp SLICED garlic
1 tbsp italian seasoning
5 tbsp olive oil

Toss potatoes in garlic, seasoning, and oil. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-45 minutes, or until soft.

Taziki sauce
small container plain yogurt
1/2 of a small cucumber, seeded and minced
1 tsp minced garlic
2 pinches dill (fresh or dry)
6 tbsp minced white onion

Mix ingredients together, and place in fridge until needed.

Greek "salad"
6 roma tomatoes, seeded and cut into 1" cubes
1 large english cucumber, peeled and cut into 1" cubes
1 large white onion, cut into cubes
1/2 cup kalamata olives, pitted
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
1 tbsp white vinegar
salt and pepper

I also made my hummas (recipe in previous post), and Brian brought home some Nan bread, which is alot like Pita bread, but a bit more stretchy and flavorful. This dinner was soooo good we ate until we were stuffed. Whats nice about it, is that there is plenty for everyone, and even my kids love it!
