Notes
- Marination Magic: The longer you marinate your turkey, the more flavorful it will be. If you can, let it bathe in those spices and herbs overnight. Your taste buds will thank you!
- Skewer Tip: To prevent your skewers from burning on the grill, soak them in water if they're wooden. This is like giving them a little armor against the flames.
- Grill Marks Galore: For those picture-perfect grill marks, resist the urge to move the skewers around too much. Let them sear and sizzle until they're ready to flip.
- Yogurt Sauce Balance: When preparing your spicy yogurt sauce, start with a little heat and gradually add more. It's easier to turn up the spice than to dial it back!
- Resting Time: Give your cooked Turkey Souvlaki a brief rest before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring each bite is succulent.
- Serving Warmth: Warm your pita breads slightly before loading them up with the souvlaki and sauce. It makes all the difference for that cozy, comforting feel.
