Hotter Greek-Style Marinade for Grilling

[blopez34]

I know that a lot of Greek cooks don't add a lot of heat to their food, but I like it, especially for grilling.

Is it a simple matter of putting crushed red pepper in a ladolemono or do I need to think about other things?

Not sure the heat of the red pepper will go well with the lemon in that one.

I am not attached to it being a ladolemono with heat.

There are some Greek dishes that have some heat - you might want to start with experimenting with some dishes, like the red pepper and feta dip that uses a type of hot pepper that is found in Greece. I wouldn't really mix the pepper with lemon though - maybe try a marinade that involves red wine vinegar instead?
