Greek Souvlaki with Loaded Feta Fries

Juicy marinated chicken and beef souvlaki skewers served with crispy loaded feta fries, topped with onions, peppers, herbs, and creamy tzatziki for a flavorful Mediterranean meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 500g chicken breast, cut into chunks
  • 500g beef, cut into chunks
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Metal or wooden skewers (soak wooden skewers if using)
  • 4 large potatoes, cut into fries
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1/2 cup red onion, diced
  • 1/2 cup yellow pepper, sliced
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1/2 cup tzatziki sauce

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine 3 tbsp olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper. Add chicken and beef chunks, toss well, and marinate for at least 1 hour or overnight for best flavor.
  2. Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Thread meat onto skewers and grill for 8–10 minutes, turning occasionally, until cooked through and slightly charred.
  3. For the fries, preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) or heat oil for frying. Toss potato fries in 3 tbsp olive oil, season with salt, and bake for 25–30 minutes, or fry until golden and crispy.
  4. Arrange fries on plates, sprinkle with feta, onions, peppers, and parsley, then drizzle with tzatziki sauce.
  5. Serve the souvlaki skewers hot alongside the loaded fries with extra tzatziki on the side.

Notes

  • Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes before grilling to prevent burning.
  • Marinating overnight enhances the flavor.
  • Serve with warm pita bread for an extra touch.
  • You can substitute chicken or beef with lamb for a different taste.
