      Very, very easy, and very, very good! The lemon flavor was very prominent, and the marinade REALLY tenderized the chicken - I noticed as I was putting it on the skewers that it almost fell apart - and that was before cooking; so you can imagine how tender it was when done! Or maybe it's because we grilled it by the "light" of the lunar eclipse ... No, I'm sure it was the lovely marinade! I didn't taste much garlic though it seemed as if I put a lot in. I will definitely marinate longer next time, maybe add a little more garlic. Everyone's taste is different. Overall, this couldn't be any easier, and it's a refreshing change. This will be a fun and different outdoor summer party dish! Oops! EdsGirl here again - I forgot to add that I used the marinade on some Yukon Gold potatoes - I boiled them till just tender, then poured the marinade on them while warm (I made extra marinade just for this purpose). They were outstanding!

      CL, the flavor of this marinade was a little too subtle for our taste. I'm wondering if it's because we used previously frozen chicken breasts and they maybe diluted the marinade. We marinated the pieces for about 2 hours...resulting in very tender chicken pieces. We will try this recipe again (we didn't vary the ingredients first time around) but use fresh chicken breasts instead. M&Mers

      It was delicious!! And so easy. I grilled the chicken whole then slice it then. I served it with romain lettuce leaves instead of pita. Topped it with thin slices of red onion ,tomatoe and tzatziki sauce. Even the kids loved it. this has become a family favorite. thanks.

      A good, solid recipe. However, it seems a bit too acidic with all that lemon juice and vinegar. Maybe I will reduce the vinegar next time or omit it. The chicken was falling apart and I only marinaded for 2 hours as directed. Any longer and I wouldn't have been able to skewer them. Perhaps increase the garlic too. The marinade makes quite a bit of extra so feel free to cut it down to 2/3 or use the extra for basting on potatoes or other veggies on the grill.

      This is just awesome! I didn't use it for skewers but mixed it up and used it to marinate, then baste, a whole chicken. Since I had no savory, I did use Mediterranean oregano. This is one I will use again and again for many different things because it is just so darned good. Thanks, CL, for posting this one.

      Yummers. This was fantastic, as good or better than greek restaurants I've been to. I doubled the garlic and used half olive oil and half vegetable oil for the marinade. Served w low fat tzatziki, whole wheat greek pita and couscous with red onion, spring onion and crumbled feta. Hubby loved it. Next trying the reggae wraps I keep hearing about. Thanks for the great recipe.

      I LOVED this! Used some greek pita breads, salad, and tzatziki sauce to make sandwiches.

      Very Good! I followed advice from several reviewers (boiled baby potatoes and tzatziki) and had same flavorful results. I will definately do this again and again.

      Excellent souvlaki! It is comparable to anything I have eaten in a Greek restaurant.

      Wow! Easy and tasty! I added a little extra garlic because we are garlic lovers. My neighbour had a bite and she said she will buy the ingredients and I could cook for her. I served it with a Greek salad and Greek potatoes. YUM

      Simple to make with a very tasty, clean flavor that also keeps the chicken moist and juicy. A definite keeper - thanks for sharing!

      I had chicken in the fridge and all the ingredients to make this super easy dish up! I served it in a warmed pita shell with chopped tomatoes, avocado, lettuce and Evelyn/Athens's Tzatziki. Delicious!!! This would be perfect for OMAC. Thanks for sharing!!!

      YUMMY ! We loved this recipe - even the kids ! I didn't make any changes except we broiled them because of nasty weather. I cheated and bought tzatziki sauce. I took the leftovers to work today and everyone was jealous ! Thanks !

      This recipe is amazing. I accidently left out the paprika the first time I made it, and it was amazing. I didn't like it as much when I added the paprika the second time around. I marinade them overnight for top notch flavor. It makes for a quick, easy, and delicioius meal.

      This is a great recipe! Tastes just like what I have had at restaurants and is super easy to make. I marinated it for about 4 hours. threw it on the grill and my gas ran out... I had to finish it up in a skillet over med-high heat and it was still awesome!!! I paired it with Tzatziki and #17977. Thanks for the recipe!

      This was so good. I marinated for about 3 or 4 hours and it really gave the chicken such a nice flavor outside and in. I served this with greens tossed with Greek dressing which I used as a bed for the skewers,slices of tomato and onion, baby red potatoes drizzled with garlic infused EVOO and salt, evelyn/athens Tzatziki recipe, hunks of feta cheese and flat bread which DH spooned everything into. It was quite a feast but we really enjoyed every bite. Thanks for the great recipe. I'll be making this one alot.
