Instructions

• Step 1

  Marinate the chicken pieces in the lemon juice, garlic, olive oil and spices and set aside in the fridge for at least half an hour.

• Step 2

  Make the tzatziki by grating the cucumber and squeezing out the excess juice. Stir the squeezed cucumber through the yoghurt along with the mint, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Set aside.

• Step 3

  Heat a heavy-based frying pan over medium heat. Drizzle a little olive oil into the frying pan and cook the chicken pieces, turning occasionally, for 5-8 minutes or until the chicken pieces are browned and cooked all the way through.

• Step 4

  Serve your souvlaki by toasting the Mission Garlic Souvlaki Bread in a hot frying pan for a minute on each side or until soft and lightly charred. Spread the hot souvlaki bread with a few tablespoons of tzatziki and fill with shredded lettuce, chopped tomato and a generous helping of the cooked chicken. Finish with a squeeze of lemon juice or a sprinkling of sumac.
