Beef Souvlaki is a traditional Greek dish featuring marinated beef chunks skewered and grilled to perfection. The marinade typically combines olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, and other Mediterranean herbs, creating bold flavors. Served with pita bread, fresh vegetables, and often a side of tzatziki sauce made from yogurt, cucumber, and dill, it offers a balanced meal rich in protein. The lean beef provides essential nutrients like iron and vitamin B12, while the olive oil and herbs contribute heart-healthy fats and antioxidants. Pairing it with fresh produce boosts fiber and vitamins. While delicious, watch for high sodium levels in marinades or excessive portions of pita and sauce if you’re monitoring calorie intake. For a lighter version, opt for whole-grain pita and limit creamy toppings. Versatile and nutrient-dense, Beef Souvlaki is both a flavorful and satisfying choice within the Mediterranean diet.
