Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Pork tenderloin
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tbsp Soy sauce
- 2 tbsp Honey substitute
- 1 tbsp Lemon juice
- 1 tsp Dried oregano
- 0.5 tsp Ground black pepper
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 2 medium Bell peppers, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 medium Red onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 8 pieces Skewers
Instructions
Cut the pork tenderloin into 1-inch cubes and place them in a large mixing bowl.
In a separate bowl, whisk together olive oil, minced garlic, soy sauce, honey substitute, lemon juice, dried oregano, ground black pepper, and salt to create the marinade.
Pour the marinade over the pork cubes, ensuring that each piece is well-coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, up to 2 hours for more flavor.
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning on the grill.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Alternately thread the marinated pork, bell pepper pieces, and onion pieces onto the skewers.
Place the skewers on the preheated grill and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the pork is cooked through and the vegetables are tender and have grill marks.
Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Serve the grilled honey garlic pork skewers with a fresh salad or your choice of low carb side.
