Ingredients –
For the Greek lemon potatoes:
7 large russet potatoes peeled (optional), each potato cut into 8 wedges
3 medium-large lemons, juiced (about 3/4 cups total lemon juice)
5 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup yellow mustard
1 tsp salt
2 tbsp Spiceology Greek freak spice
4 garlic cloves finely minced
For the pork skewers:
800 grams (about 1.7 lbs) pork tenderloin, cut into 1 inch pieces
4 garlic cloves, pressed
1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp ground pepper
2 tbsp Spiceology Greek freak spice
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 lemon, juiced
8 small skewers (4 1/2 inch skewers)
For serving:
1 pint cherry tomatoes, quartered
1 cup pickled onions (make our pickled onion recipe)
3 baby cucumbers, thinly sliced
1/4 cup fresh chopped dill
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
tzatziki for serving (use our tzatziki recipe)
Make the potatoes:
Preheat the oven to 400F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside. You can also lightly grease a baking sheet with olive oil or use a non-stick baking dish if you don’t have any parchment. Both are fine.
Into a large mixing bowl add lemon juice, olive oil, mustard and whisk together to combine. Add the potatoes, salt, greek freak spice and garlic and toss together well to coat the potatoes.
Transfer the potatoes to the baking sheet or dish.
Cook for 40-45 minutes in the middle of the oven until the potatoes are tender and starting to brown. For extra crispiness finish your potatoes off with a 5-minute broil in the oven. Set aside.
Make the pork skewer:
Marinate the pork: Add all of the pork marinade ingredients to a medium bowl and whisk together to combine. Add all of the pieces of pork to the marinade, toss to fully coat and let sit for 30 minutes.
After 30 minutes, thread the marinated pork onto the skewers.
Heat the grill to medium-high heat, about 400F.
Oil the grill well and when heated, place the skewers on the grill and cook, turning occasionally, for about 15 minutes or until cooked through (internal temperature reached 145F) and well browned.
Remove from the grill and let rest.
Assemble the bowls:
Divide the ingredients between 4 bowls – First add a large dollop of tzatziki to the bowl. Next add in a spoonful or two of potatoes and add 1-2 small skewers of pork to the bowl (or remove the pork from the skewers). Add in the tomatoes, cucumbers, pickled onions and garnish with 1 tbsp fresh dill and 2 tbsp crumbled feta cheese per bowl.
