Steps:
- Add all of the ingredients for the marinade in a blender and blend until smooth paste forms.
- Cut the chicken to bite-sized 1,5-inch (3 cm) pieces. Add in a food container.
- Season chicken with salt and pepper. Add the marinade and mix well to spread all over the chicken. Put the lid on and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 2 hours before cooking.
- Soak the wooden skewers in water for about 10 minutes.
- Remove the stem and seeds of the bell pepper and cut into 1,5-inch (3cm) pieces.
- Remove stem and inside of the tomato, leaving only the skin. Cut the tomato and the onion in 1,5-inch (3cm) pieces as well.
- Start threading the skewers by adding one piece of pepper, 1-2 pieces of meat, one piece of onion, 1-2 pieces of meat, one piece of tomato and 1-2 pieces of meat until you reach the end of the skewer.
- Heat your grill, griddle, or grill pan over high heat. Grease well with oil. Drop heat to medium-high and add the Souvlakis. Cook for about 12-15 minutes or until the internal temperature of the meat reads 80°C / 176°F on an instant-read thermometer.Turn every 3 minutes to cook evenly all around.
- Make the Ladolemono Dressing. Add 2/3 olive oil to the 2 juiced lemons. Whisk for a minute or two until it thickens. Or you can use a squeeze bottle and shake until combined.
- Pour Ladolemono over the meat right as it comes out of the grill. Sprinkle with dried oregano and you're ready to serve!

Steps:
- Place the chicken in a bowl and add oregano, garlic powder, seasoning salt and pepper.
- Toss to coat.
- Marinate in fridge for at least 30 minutes -the longer the better.

- Skewer chicken onto wooden or metal skewers.
- BBQ chicken skewers until done.
- Mix the oil and lemon mixture until "creamy" and drizzle over the hot chicken - do this as soon as they come off the grill.
- Serve and enjoy!
- **on a side note - if you own a George Foreman, grill this recipe works very well on it!

LEMON CHICKEN SOUVLAKI
I had this in Greece and begged for the recipe to no avail. This is my version. I tend to allow the chicken to marinade overnight so that it is more tender and full of flavour. I serve them with green salad, tzatziki and bread. Great for a BBQ.

- Skewer the chicken on the skewers (I put about 6-7 pieces on each)
- Heat a grill pan or frying pan over medium to high heat and add ½ teaspoon olive oil to the pan. Grill for about 1 minute on each side. Remove from grill pan and place in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes. Grill the next batch and repeat. Chicken is ready when it has reached an inner temperature of 165o F.
- Serve hot with plenty of lemon.

- To make the Souvlaki Marinate, in a wide bowl (with a lid) or in seal-able bag, add all ingredients except chicken in the ingredient list above. Mix well and set aside.
- Slice chicken breast into small 1-2 inch pieces. Add to the marinade and coat into the marinade. Cover with lid (or close the bag), refrigerate until ready to use. Marinating for 20-30 minutes tenderize the meat and makes it very flavorful. You can marinate it up-to overnight.

- If serving grilled pita on side, spray oil on grill pita bread until nice grill marks appear on both sides (30 sec to 1 minute each side). Serve on side with Chicken Souvlaki! Serve and enjoy!

- Trim chicken and cut into large chunks- mine were about 1.5" big and I got 4-6 chunks from each chicken breast.
- If you'd like to grill some vegetables along side your chicken, I highly recommend it! We did a skewer of mushrooms, plus we also sliced some white onion to thread along with the chicken. The mushrooms were amazing!! To marinate vegetables, if you just have a few, set aside 3-5 TBSP of the marinade prior to mixing with the chicken. Then just put vegetables & marinade in a separate ziplock bag in the fridge, turning the bag occasionally to mix it. If you're doing a good amount of vegetables, I'd double the marinade instead!
- Heat a saucepan over medium heat. {Make sure pan has a lid!} Add in oil. After about a minute, add in rice and saute for 2-3 minutes, stirring often so it doesn't brown too much. Add salt and lemon juice to rice and saute 1 minute more.
