I loved these. Marinated the meat in one bag and veggies in the other all day. Skewered right before grilling. Very good flavor. I used low sodium soy as I always do so we didn't find then too salty as others had mentioned. Also, used orange and red peppers as that is what I had on hand. Will make again. Thanks for the recipe

Ok, like others, Soy Sauce isnt Greek, but who cares when the marinade is so good? I used this on mushrooms, pork, chicken, peppers and shallots. It was "rock my world" good. One recommendation: definitely allow enough time to marinate. If you only allow a short time, I have found that the flavors from the marinade are weak. I recommend overnight or at least 6 hours. I also use low sodium soy sauce, so maybe this is the reason, but regardless, try this and I know you will not be dissappointed!

Update:I agree with the reviewer today-so what if soy sauce is not Greek. This is my very favorite "Greek" marinade! In fact we are having pork loin along with fresh squash, fresh bell pepper and fresh onion for kabobs tonight. BUT, this marinade has been delicious also with other meats! Thanks, Nobody'sGirl for such a winning recipe!

Sorry but I must agree with a previous review. There is NO soya sauce in traditional souvlaki. If you want the real thing omit the soy sauce. There's nothing wrong with adding the soya if you like it but if someone is looking for a souvlaki recipe and they see this they will think its the real thing. It's a good recipe just not authentic. Perhaps if it had a different title. Just a thought.

I tell you what, I know very well that soy sauce is not a traditional ingredient in anything Greek, and I don't need any hopped up foodies screaming authenticity in my ear. I LOVE this recipe. It is absolutely delicious. I do use low sodium soy, so maybe others find it too salty if they don't. That's well and good. Have some common sense and taste your marinade before you add any meat! If it tastes salty, add more lemon juice and oil. Problem solved, my friends. I marinate red peppers and red onions right in with this. The marinade makes for a lovely caramelization, and this goes splendidly with Tzatziki Sauce I. I serve this on pita with cucumbers, lettuce, tomatoes, tzatziki and feta cheese. Mmmm. Can't go wrong. This also works well with chicken. Please don't listen to the nay-sayers. It really is delicious. Would I lead you astray? ;)

I thought this was a good recipe, I would definitely try this one again. I made a few changes though. I used 4 lemons instead of 1. I add a couple of tablespoons of greek spice/seasoning. I an added a small diced onion & diced green pepper to the marinade. I added about half a cup of Parmeasan Cheese to the marinade. I didn't add the soya sauce. Instead of the BBQ, I poured the pork & marinade into a pot & boiled everything for about an hour. I strained the pork out (I wasn't a big fan of the marinade as a sauce) & added it to some fettucini. Overall, this recipe was good & has a lot of potential for variations.

I realize that soy sauce is not a traditional Greek ingredient, but that fact cannot take away from how TASTY this is. No need to change a thing. I served it with some rice and tahini/yogurt sauce. Seems like a very versatile recipe that could be used in gyros and with many different kinds of meat. Might try this with lamb soon.

I've meant to comment on this recipe before I found it last summer and make it quite often. Just delicious. We love it. I follow the recipe to the tee except I add more onion. I like the flavor the have after marinating and then grilling. A great dish.

Wow this makes ALOT! I used 2 lbs tenderloin and 2 chicken breast and I had enough for 5 plus plenty of leftovers. Marinated for 24 hours in 3 separate Ziplocs (so I had to make a little extra marinade). Received rave reviews - made the meat very tender and tasty.

I made this last night exactly as written and it was fantastic. I cooked the pork, pepper, and onions in a stir-fry basket on the grill since I didn't have any skewers and it turned out moist and tender. Served on warm pitas with tzaziki sauce, accompanied by white rice and a Greek salad. Very very easy and tasty, will definitely become a summer staple in my family.

Very traditional recipe, except Greeks don't use soy sauce. This is an old family recipe used and eaten with great pride, success & Tzatziki sauce (but don't use soy sauce.) You can also use pork and barbeque some potato slices in olive oil for a great side dish. Of course don't forget the bread. Opah!

This was so delicious! I didn't have that much time so I only marinated them for about half an hour. I'm sure they'd be better left longer, but don't be discouraged if you don't have the time. They still came out great. I couldn't grill them, I was about to put them in the stove, when I decided to try them on the griddle. They came out great and I paired them with the greek potatoes recipe, which is also excellent.

DELICIOUS! I will make this over and over again. I followed the recipe for the marinade to the letter, and it was amazing. The soy sauce is barely noticeable. It just adds a bit of saltiness. I broiled these in the oven for about 10-15 minutes and served it with Yia Yia's Tzatziki Sauce found on this site. Incredible combo. A must try.

This was very tasty! I only give it three stars because its not very authentic (soy sauce was very dominant not something I associate with greek food) but dont get me wrong it is DELICIOUS and it comes out juicy and tender and the marinade is great. I did notice that you need a longer cooking time than 8 or 10 minutes. But that may be due to the fact that I cut my cubes a little bigger. Also after getting home from the store I noticed I didn't have any skewers, so I just popped the meat on the grill and sauteed the green peppers and onions. overall very good.
