Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Pork shoulder or tenderloin
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 medium-sized Bell peppers
- 1 medium-sized Red onion
- 100 grams Cherry tomatoes
- 8 pieces Skewers
Instructions
Cut the pork shoulder or tenderloin into 1-inch cubes and place in a large bowl.
In a small bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, onion powder, paprika, dried oregano, and black pepper.
Pour the marinade over the pork cubes, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or overnight for more flavor).
While the pork is marinating, soak wooden skewers in water for about 30 minutes to prevent burning during cooking.
Chop the bell peppers and red onion into similar size pieces as the pork.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated pork, bell peppers, red onion, and cherry tomatoes alternately onto the skewers.
Grill the skewers for 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the pork is cooked through and slightly charred on the edges.
Serve hot, garnished with extra lemon slices if desired.
