Mediterranean Kebabs
Let's be real, kebabs are the ultimate "I totally tried harder than I actually did" meal. They look impressive, they're ridiculously fun to eat, and honestly? They're stupid easy. Plus, who doesn't love eating off a stick? It’s basically adult Lunchables, but way sexier.
Zeus' Divine Intervention
Ready for a flavor bolt from the blue? Our Zeus' Juice Greek Seasoning is so powerful, you'll swear the gods themselves blessed your meal. We're talking oregano, thyme, garlic, and all the good stuff that’ll transport you straight to the Greek islands (minus the airfare, questionable tan lines, and inevitable family drama). Prepare for your tastebuds to feel truly divine.
Ingredients:
- Meat: Chicken, beef, or lamb, cut into 1-inch chunks
- Veggies: Bell peppers (various colors), red onion, cherry tomatoes, cut into similar-sized pieces
- Olive oil
- Fresh lemon, for squeezing
- The Spicy Rack's Zeus' Juice Greek Seasoning
- Wooden or metal skewers
Skewer Success (It's Easier Than Parallel Parking):
- Get Your Chunks On: Cut up your chosen meat (chicken, beef, or lamb) into nice, bite-sized chunks. Then grab some colorful bell peppers, sassy red onion, and plump cherry tomatoes. The more colors, the prettier your stick!
- The Marinating Mingle: Toss your meat and veggies with a glug of olive oil, a squeeze of fresh lemon, and a very generous sprinkle of our Zeus' Juice. Let this glorious mess marinate for at least 30 minutes (or while you're yelling at the kids to stop running with scissors – whatever comes first).
- Thread 'Em Up: Get those bad boys on your skewers. Mix and match your meat and veggies; make 'em pretty!
- Grill to Thrill: Fire up the grill! Cook your kebabs until everything's deliciously cooked through and sporting some sexy char marks. Instant Mediterranean vacation, courtesy of your grill and Zeus' Juice. You’re welcome.
Tips & Tricks (Because Even Gods Need Guidance):
- Soak Your Skewers: If you're using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before threading. This prevents them from burning on the grill.
- Want to add even more of that delicious garlic punch? Drizzle in some Garlic-infused Premium EVOO from our pals at Rustic Roots. They know how to infuse some serious flavor!
- Craving a little more zest: a drizzle of Lemon-infused Premium EVOO from Rustic Roots will add that perfect bright, citrusy punch.
- Don't Overcrowd: Give your meat and veggies some breathing room on the skewer. Overcrowding can lead to uneven cooking and less char.
- Rotate for Even Cooking: Flip your kebabs regularly to ensure all sides get that beautiful char and cook through evenly.
- Rest Your Meat: Just like any good meat, let your grilled kebabs rest for a few minutes off the grill before serving. This keeps them juicy and tender.
- Serve it Up: These are fantastic on their own, or served with warm pita bread, a side of tzatziki sauce, or a simple Greek salad.
