What’s an alternative to grilling meats Greek style?

[auroracoor1]

Hi guys. I am wondering if you can help me out… I love grilling, especially in the summer and one of my favorite marinades to use is the classic Greek marinade of garlic, olive oil, lemon, salt pepper and oregano. But it just gets way too cold here in New York to grill during the winter months. Does anyone have any advice on how to get that same flavor in the kitchen?

As someone who grills year round (even in winter in Boston LOL!) what sometimes works is to broil the meat (after it is seasoned) depending on how you would like it cooked...without a propane, wood or charcoal grill this is the next best flavor in the winter months. Hope this helps!!

I second the broil recommendation! It's not exactly the same but the seasoning still gives the meat an amazing flavor!

Also, marinade the meat from the day before it helps bring out the flavor.

Trust me, I know exactly how you feel becuase I am from Canada. It's pretty hard to get that same flavour, because you don’t have charcoal but you can definitely char your meat on a pan and then transferred to the oven. That's how I like to cook my chicken. Another thing you can do is skewer the chicken and put it on a rack so that the fat drips down. Mine came out like this.
