Instructions
- 1
Whisk the vinegar, oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, mint, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
- 2
Add the cubed meat to the marinade. Toss the meat until it is completely coated.
- 3
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours. You can leave it overnight or up to 2 days.
- 4
Thread the meat onto skewers. Leave small spaces between the pieces so they cook evenly.
- 5
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
- 6
Grill the skewers for 10 to 14 minutes, turning them occasionally. Cook until lightly charred outside and done inside.
- 7
Slide the hot meat directly off the skewers onto slices of soft Italian bread.
- 8
Drizzle with a little extra marinade or oil. Fold the bread around the meat and serve.
Chef's tips
Marinate the meat for at least 4 hours and up to 2 days so the vinegar mixture makes it tender and flavorful.
Storage
Refrigerate marinated raw meat up to 2 days before grilling; store cooked leftovers up to 3 days.
Reheating
Reheat gently in a skillet over medium heat until warmed through; avoid overcooking, which dries the meat further.
Common mistakes to avoid
- •Not marinating long enough, which leaves the meat tough and plain.
- •Packing meat too tightly on skewers, which stops it from browning evenly.
- •Using hard sandwich rolls instead of soft Italian bread slices.
