Greek marinades are super simple and can be made in no time! In this recipe, we used chicken thighs, a meat that’s often in supermarket flyers. Plus, this meat is always tender even when cooked for a long period of time, in contrast with chicken breasts that tend to dry up more quickly. But do not hesitate to use the chicken cut you have on hand or the one on special in your local grocery store. SIMPLY DELICIOUS: Here is the Greek chicken skewer recipe to go with your marinade. You can serve this dish with ceasar salad, rice pilaf (or cauliflower rice!), or small potatoes! Bonà savoir Can I use fresh herbs? During summer, do not hesitate to use garden fresh herbs to marinate your poultry (just like in this recipe!). To enhance the flavours even more, garnish the plates with the herbs when ready to serve. Ingredients Metric system Imperial system Olive oil - ¾ cup 180 mL To discover!
