bosco Posted October 15, 2015 Report Posted October 15, 2015 Well I wanted Greek food... But had all the stuff to make a great dinner. Greek roasted potatoes with Greek salad and chicken souvlaki that I marinated all day. Cooked at 375 on my joe Jr. using my new Webber stainless skewers!!!
MacKenzie Posted October 15, 2015 Report Posted October 15, 2015 Looking good, bosco, just wait until you do the souvlaki on the KK;)
bosco Posted October 15, 2015 Author Report Posted October 15, 2015 I used fat free feta, low fat tzatziki and minimal dressing. I tried to keep it on the healthy side as best as I could. It was a great plate!!
ckreef Posted October 15, 2015 Report Posted October 15, 2015 That is a yummy looking plate of food. Great cook, great picture.
tony b Posted October 15, 2015 Report Posted October 15, 2015 Great cook and glad to see you're back in the saddle cooking at home!
EGGARY Posted October 16, 2015 Report Posted October 16, 2015 Bosco, How do you make the Greek Potatoes ? Had them in Ottawa and they were tasty. Thanks.
bosco Posted October 16, 2015 Author Report Posted October 16, 2015 here is my recipe I copied from the other forum. This is how I have been doing it for the past few years For anyone looking for a simple recipe for greek chicken and potato 3 gloves of garlic minced 1 tbsp fresh oregano or dried if you can't find fresh 2 tbsp red wine vinegar 6 tbsp of fresh squeezed lemon juice 4 tbsp of extra-virgin olive oil 3/4 tsp sea salt 1/2 tsp fresh ground black pepper 4 chicken breasts diced into 1" cubes Marinate the chicken for at least 2 to 4 hours. The longer the better. Soak the wood skewers in water to prevent burning prior to cooking For the lemon roasted garlic potatoes I do the following 4 large russet potatoes or 8 medium, peeled and quartered 1 cup of water 1/2 cup olive oil 1/2 cup of fresh lemon juice roughly 3 lemons 1 tbsp dried oregano 1 tablespoon sea salt 1/4 tsp of ground black pepper. I roast the potatoes at 500 degrees uncovered in the coven until they are fork tender. Thats it, serve with a nice greek salad and some warm pitas and tsatziki. I only posted because you asked about seasoning without the pre made rub.
EGGARY Posted October 17, 2015 Report Posted October 17, 2015 For the potatoes, what is the water for ?
bosco Posted October 17, 2015 Author Report Posted October 17, 2015 it softens them up while they are roasting. When you go to a greek restaurant this is how it is done!!!
