Souvlaki is a traditional Greek dish that consists of grilled meat skewers. This dish is a mainstay of Greek street food and is offered by sellers on the streets of Greece. The souvlaki is juicy and tasty because the meat is marinated in olive oil with a mixture of herbs and spices. The traditional Greek souvlaki is made with pork. Still, chicken is also a popular option for those looking for leaner meat.

Fries, tomatoes, onions, and tzatziki are standard toppings for souvlaki. A traditional Greek sauce, tzatziki, is made with yogurt, cucumber, dill, olive oil, and garlic. It provides a chilled, creamy contrast to the juicy meat in a way that is the ideal companion to souvlaki. Most street sellers also include a selection of sauces and garnishes, including mustard, ketchup, parsley, and lettuce, so you may personalize your souvlaki to suit your tastes. Souvlaki is also frequently eaten as a pita sandwich. It’s a tasty and practical option for people who are constantly on the go because the meat and toppings are wrapped in warm pita bread.
