Amazing Greek Lunch Recipes

Bursting with an exotic medley of Mediterranean flavours, our Greek lunch dishes are a kaleidoscope of culinary creativity. 

A chicken and pork souvlaki, an indulgent stuffed squid known as kalamarakia yemista, and a solomo kleftiko are as authentic as they are delicious. Light bites include a Greek salad with oregano marinated chicken, alongside a mint, courgette and pine nut salad. For tastes of the ocean, barbecued whole red snapper with sea salt and fresh oregano mix, or perfectly poached salmon with lemon mint tzatziki are Greek lunch ideas that never fail to impress.

These Greek lunch recipes represent the sun-soaked soul of Hellenistic cuisine.
