Instructions:

1. Prepare the Tzatziki

  • Grate the cucumbers using a coarse grater into a bowl.
  • Add a pinch of salt to the grated cucumber and massage thoroughly with your hands for about 2 minutes to release the water.
  • Squeeze and drain as much water as possible from the cucumber.
  • Combine the drained cucumber with Greek yogurt, grated garlic, chopped dill, chopped mint, and olive oil in a bowl. Mix well.
  • Refrigerate the tzatziki until ready to serve.

  • Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Gently mix the ingredients until well combined. Set aside.

3. Prepare the Skewers

  • Cut each Steakhouse Cut lengthwise in half to create long strips.
  • Thread each strip onto a 5-inch wooden skewer.

4. Heat the Flatbread

  • Warm the flatbread or naan in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 1-2 minutes on each side until soft and pliable. Set aside.

5. Grill the Skewers

  • Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. (You can also use a real grill if available.)
  • Lightly coat the skewers with olive oil.
  • Grill the skewers for about 2½ minutes on each side, or until they are nicely browned and heated through.

6. Assemble the Souvlaki
