Instructions
Wash produce before use
1
Make the souzoukaklia
- Cut a small corner from your protein packaging and drain off any excess liquid. Transfer to a plate; pat dry with a paper towel.
- Peel and finely chop enough onion to measure ½ cup [1 cup].
In a large bowl, combine your protein, the onion, raisins, and Greek spice blend. Season with salt and pepper and mix gently until just combined. Using wet hands, form the mixture into 6 [12] ovals, each about ¾ inch thick; thread each onto a wooden skewer and save the remaining skewers for another use.
2
Pan-sear the lemon; cook the souzoukaklia
- Cut the lemon in half crosswise.
In a dry large frying pan over high heat, add the lemon halves, cut sides down, and cook until lightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Do not clean the pan.
In the same pan over medium heat, warm 1 tablespoon [2 TBL] oil until hot but not smoking. Add the souzoukaklia and cook, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 2 to 4 minutes per side for ground beef, 2 to 3 minutes per side for Impossible Burger. Transfer to a plate. Meanwhile, prepare the salad.
3
Make the arugula-blueberry salad
- Using the bottom of a bowl or cup, lightly crush the hazelnuts.
- Juice enough seared lemon to measure 2 teaspoons [4 tsp]; set aside the remaining lemon for serving.
Serve
Transfer the souzoukaklia to individual plates and squeeze the remaining juice from the seared lemon halves over them. Serve with the arugula-blueberry salad.
