Chicken Souvlaki Dump Chicken

Chicken Souvlaki Dump Chicken
4 chicken breasts, cooked, cut into large chunks
1 1/2 tsp oregano
1 clove minced garlic
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 tsp oil
1/4 cup lemon juice

Combine spices and oil. Add lemon juice. Place (or "dump") chicken in freezer container or bag, pour marinade over. Freeze.

To serve, heat in microwave in glass dish. Drain off excess mainade. Serve with baked potatoes and a veggie side, such as carrot sticks or steamed broccoli.

To prepare without freezing, place raw chicken in marinade for at least 30 min (up to a day). Thread onto skewers; broil or barbeque until done, approx. 5 min on each side.

We've already eaten both containers of Chicken Souvlaki, and it was one of the best chicken recipes I've made. Supper was on the table in less than 15 minutes, with only about 5 minutes of actual active work. I will be making this again. The same marinade also works with beef or venison; cubed round steak is perfect.

  3. Thank you for sharing your recipes uncanny! I really want to try to make some of them. My challenge will be trying to make them low sodium because of my diet. =(

  4. I admit that sodium doesn't really enter into my consideration - but this one should be pretty good, as it's lemon based rather than soya sauce based.
