About Chicken souvlaki

Chicken Souvlaki is a popular dish from Greek cuisine featuring marinated chicken skewered and grilled to perfection. The marinade typically includes olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, and other herbs, infusing the meat with vibrant Mediterranean flavors. Often served in pita bread or alongside rice, salads, and tzatziki sauce, this dish offers a balanced mix of protein, healthy fats, and fiber. Chicken, as a lean protein source, supports muscle development and maintenance, while olive oil and herbs provide heart-healthy antioxidants. Pairing it with fresh vegetables adds vitamins and minerals while keeping the meal light and nutritious. However, depending on preparation, certain aspects like a high sodium marinade or added fats in sauces and sides can increase calorie counts. Despite these factors, Chicken Souvlaki remains a delicious choice for a balanced Mediterranean-inspired meal.
