Instructions
Marinate meat
- Cut tenderloin into bite-size chunks and put into a container with remaining marinade ingredients.
- Swish everything around to distribute, put in fridge and forget for a day (this long marination is not absolutely necessary- but longer means more flavour. If you haven't the time, just do what you can).
Tzatzki
- Combine all ingredients and refrigerate
Grill meat
- When ready to BBQ, skewer meat onto metal or wooden skewers (remember to soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 1/2 an hour first) and grill over direct heat until the meat is nicely browned and internal temperature is about 150 deg. Do not overcook.
- As you are barbecuing the meat, brush as many pita breads as there are souvlaki generously with olive oil and put on the bbq to crisp slightly or alternatively, into a hot frying pan, and cook about 30-45 seconds per side or until starting to brown and give off a yummy,'toasty' smell.
- Place grilled meat on pita with tomato and onion. Add dollops of Tzatzki sauce and serve.
