Notes

Greek seasoning- You can use homemade Greek seasoning (I usually use this homemade Greek Seasoning recipe,) or store bought (I like Cavenders.) I usually use homemade, but either give a great result. If you are gluten free or low carb, you will want to use the homemade version.
Leftovers can be stored:
- In the refrigerator for 3-4 days
- In the freezer for up to a month

This recipe is naturally gluten free and low carb. Make sure that you use homemade greek seasoning to meet these needs.
