Time 1h20m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 pound pork tenderloin, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
½ cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 teaspoon Sriracha sauce
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon minced garlic
10 bamboo skewers
2 teaspoons vegetable oil, or as needed
3 cups cubed fresh pineapple
2 red bell peppers, cut into cubes
3 green onions, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Combine pork, soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, sesame oil, lime juice, Sriracha, ginger, and garlic in a large resealable bag. Seal and shake up to combine well. Refrigerate for 1 hour, turning occasionally.
  • While the pork is marinating, soak skewers in water for about 20 minutes prior to using them. That will help the skewers to not burn up when exposed to the flame.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill or indoor grill pan to medium-high heat and lightly grease the grates with a small amount of vegetable oil.
  • Thread the skewers with marinated pork, pineapple, and red pepper, alternating back and forth; discard the marinade.
  • Cook skewers on the preheated grill until they obtain grill marks and the pork is no longer pink, about 2 minutes per side. Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 pineapple
1 red onion
One 1 1/4-pound pork tenderloin, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
Canola oil, for brushing
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 1/2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 1/2 tablespoons agave nectar or honey
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
Toasted sesame seeds, for serving

Steps:

  • If using wooden skewers, soak them in water at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  • Using a serrated knife, trim the pineapple and cut off the skin. Cut into 1 1/2-inch-thick rounds and then cut into chunks around the core; discard the core.
  • Cut the onion in half vertically and then separate the onion into 2-to-3-layer portions. Cut the portions into 1 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Preheat a grill or large grill pan over medium-high heat. Thread the pork, pineapple and red onion onto the skewers. Brush with oil and sprinkle with salt. Grill the skewers until lightly charred on the bottom, about 3 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce with the vinegar, agave nectar and sesame oil.
  • Flip the skewers and brush with some of the soy mixture. Continue to grill, flipping every 2 minutes and brushing with the soy mixture, until lightly charred all over and the pork is just cooked, 6 to 8 minutes longer. Transfer to a platter, sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and serve.

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

400g pork fillet
4 tbsp light muscovado sugar
60ml cider vinegar

  • Barbecue or griddle the skewers for 3-4 mins each side (you may need to cook them for longer if griddling). Sprinkle with coriander, if you like, then serve with rice or slide into pitta breads.
