Souvlaki

Ingredients: 2 lbs. pork tenderloin, beef tenderloin or chicken breast 1 onion 3 sprigs rosemary 4 sprigs thyme 3 cloves garlic, chopped 5 tbsps. olive oil 10 tsps. Plus 5 tsps. white wine vinegar

Pinch coarse salt Pepper, to taste

Instructions: In a bowl, pour five tablespoons of white vinegar and crumble 2 sprigs of rosemary and 2 sprigs of thyme. Dip the wooden skewers in this marinade for 1h30, so that they do not burn while the meat cooks and they release a great aroma. Using a sharp knife, remove all the white membrane that covers the top of the pork (or beef) tenderloin. This step is very important, otherwise the souvlaki would remain hard. Cut the meat into small equal size 1-inch thick pieces. Place the meat in a salad bowl and reserve at room temperature for 30 minutes. Quarter the onion. Separate the layers and add them to the meat. Crumble the remaining rosemary and thyme and add. Add 5 tablespoons of olive oil, 5 tablespoons of white wine vinegar, garlic, salt and pepper. Let stand in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Preheat the grill or barbecue. Thread the pieces of meat on the wooden skewers by inserting 2 or 3 pieces of onion in between the meat pieces. Place them on the barbecue and grill until the meat is cooked and browned. Serve with grilled pita bread, onions, tomatoes, tzatziki sauce.
