Chicken Souvlaki

Serves 2

Preparation and Cooking Time: 3 hours

Just like my tzatziki recipe, this is a dish that I fell in love with whilst on holiday in Crete. I was taken with its fresh, tangy, herby flavours and I have since worked on creating my own, authentic recipe to transport me back to Crete each time I make it.

This is a perfect meal for a hot, summer’s day, paired with an ice cold lager or a gin and tonic.
