Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Pork shoulder
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 medium Yellow bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 medium Red onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 medium Zucchini, sliced into thick rounds
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 8 pieces Wooden or metal skewers
Instructions
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during cooking.
Cut the pork shoulder into 1-inch cubes and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form the marinade.
Add the cubed pork into the bowl with the marinade and toss to thoroughly coat. Let the pork marinate for at least 30 minutes, ideally 2 hours for maximized flavor.
While the pork is marinating, prepare the vegetables: cut the red and yellow bell peppers into 1-inch pieces, slice the red onion into similar-sized pieces, cut the zucchini into thick rounds, and prepare the cherry tomatoes.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated pork, bell peppers, red onion, zucchini, and cherry tomatoes alternately onto the skewers.
Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the pork is fully cooked and the vegetables are tender with a slight char.
Remove the kebabs from the grill and allow them to rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Serve hot and enjoy your Keto Juicy Pork Kebab alongside your preferred keto-friendly side or salad.
