Souvlaki is a Greek specialty made with tender cuts of meat. In this pork recipe, the meat is marinated in a lemony olive oil mixture. Serve with rice pilaf and a Greek salad.

1/2 lemon, juiced
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1-1/2 cloves garlic, crushed
2 pounds pork tenderloin, cut into 1 inch cubes
1 medium yellow onions, cut into 1 inch pieces
1 green bell peppers, cut into 1 inch pieces
skewers



In a large glass bowl, mix together lemon juice, olive oil, soy sauce, oregano, and garlic; add pork, onions, and green peppers, and stir to coat. Cover, and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours.
Preheat grill for medium-high heat. Thread pork, peppers, and onions onto skewers.
Lightly oil grate. Cook for 10 to 15 minutes, or to desired doneness, turning skewers frequently for even cooking.

    I made this one today, too.. It went over very well with our guests :) We'll be making it again for sure. I did pork and prawns.. both were equally good in the marinade.
