This dish epitomizes the simplicity and elegance of Greek cuisine, featuring tender, marinated chicken pieces threaded onto skewers and cooked to smoky perfection in the Pit Barrel C<\/span><\/span>ooker<\/a>.<\/p>\n The symphony of flavors begins with a classic Greek marinade that awakens the senses. Plump chicken breasts are enveloped in a tantalizing blend of lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, oregano, and a touch of salt and pepper. This marinade infuses the chicken with a zesty, herbaceous essence that will tantalize your taste buds.<\/p>\n Once the chicken is well-marinated, it’s time to assemble the skewers. Carefully thread the chicken pieces onto sturdy skewers, leaving a bit of space between each piece to ensure even cooking.

The gentle heat of the coals cooks the chicken evenly, locking in its juices and creating a tender, succulent texture.<\/p>\n When the chicken is cooked through and has reached an internal temperature of 165\u00b0F, it’s time to remove the skewers from the Pit Barrel <\/span>C<\/span>ooker<\/a>. The caramelized exterior, infused with smoky flavor, gives way to tender, juicy chicken that melts in your mouth.<\/p>\n Serve your Pit Barrel Cooker Chicken Souvlaki with warm pita bread, sliced onions, tomatoes, and topped with tzatziki sauce for an authentic Greek souvlaki experience.
