Greek cuisine is known for its bold flavors, fresh ingredients, and expert grilling techniques that create juicy, tender, and aromatic meats. At Mykonos Kitchen & Bar, we bring the authentic taste of Greece to Miami, offering perfectly grilled meats infused with the essence of the Mediterranean.
But what makes Greek grilled meats so special? From selecting the right ingredients to mastering the perfect seasoning, let’s dive into the secrets behind Greek grilling and why it stands out as one of the most delicious culinary traditions.
The foundation of any great Greek dish is fresh, high-quality ingredients. Greek grilling focuses on minimal but high-impact seasonings that allow the natural flavors of the meat to shine. The key ingredients include:
A traditional Greek marinade is simple yet effective, designed to enhance the meat's juiciness while adding depth of flavor. At Mykonos Kitchen & Bar, we use time-honored recipes to create the perfect balance of flavors. A classic Greek marinade includes:
Marinating for at least a few hours (or overnight) allows the flavors to penetrate deeply, ensuring a tender and flavorful bite every time.
Greek grilling is about perfecting the fire and achieving the ideal char without overcooking the meat. Here’s how we do it:
🔥 High Heat for a Quick Sear – A hot grill locks in juices and creates a delicious crust.
🔥 Indirect Heat for Even Cooking – Meats like lamb chops and souvlaki are grilled to perfection over medium heat, preventing burning while ensuring a smoky, charred exterior.
🔥 Basting with Olive Oil & Lemon – Throughout grilling, we brush the meat with olive oil, lemon, and herbs to keep it moist and flavorful.
At Mykonos Kitchen & Bar, our grilled meats are prepared with care and authenticity. Here are some must-try Greek classics:
