How to Make No Lackie Souvlaki

  1. In a bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 1 teaspoon dried rosemary, and 2 cloves minced garlic.
  2. Place 1.5 lbs cubed pork (about 1-inch cubes) in a non-metallic container. Pour marinade over the meat, ensuring all pieces are coated.
  3. Cover and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
  4. While the pork marinates, prepare the yogurt sauce: In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup plain Greek yogurt, 2 tablespoons chopped green onions, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, and 1/2 cup chopped tomatoes.
  5. Refrigerate the yogurt sauce until ready to serve.
  6. **For Main Course:** Thread marinated pork cubes loosely onto skewers. Place skewers on a baking sheet. Baste generously with remaining marinade.
  7. **For Appetizers:** Place marinated pork cubes on a foil-lined baking sheet. Drizzle with remaining marinade.
  8. Bake or grill (or BBQ) at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes, basting several times during cooking, until the pork is cooked through and slightly browned. For grilling, cook until internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
  9. For appetizers, once cooked, remove the pork cubes from the oven and thread onto toothpicks.
  10. Serve the souvlaki immediately, drizzled with extra marinade if desired. Serve the yogurt sauce on the side for dipping.
