Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 lbs pork tenderloin, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 (13 1/2 ounce) can coconut milk
2 tablespoons vegetable oil (plus more for grill)
4 garlic cloves, smashed
1/3 cup dark brown sugar, plus
1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
1/3 cup fresh cilantro (plus more for topping)
2 tablespoons fish sauce
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons Asian chili sauce (Sriracha)
romaine lettuce leaf, for serving
chopped roasted peanuts, for topping
scallion, for topping
cucumber, for topping

Steps:

  • Toss the pork with half of the coconut milk, the vegetable oil, garlic, 1/3 cup each brown sugar and cilantro, and 1 tablespoons each fish sauce, lime juice and Sriracha in a large bowl. Cover and refrigerate 1 - 4 hours.
  • Preheat a grill to medium and lightly brush the grates with vegetable oil. Thread the pork onto eight 10-inch skewers. Grill the kebabs, turning occasionally and brushing with the remaining coconut milk, until marked and cooked through, about 12 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine 1 tablespoons water and the remaining 1 tablespoons each brown sugar, fish sauce, lime juice, and Sriracha in a small bowl. Serve the kebabs in romaine lettuce leaves and drizzle with the sauce. Top with chopped peanuts, scallions, cucumber and cilantro.
