Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb pork tenderloin
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 red onion
- 2 bell peppers (assorted colors)
- 8 bamboo skewers
Instructions
Cut the pork tenderloin into 1-inch cubes. Set aside in a large bowl.
In a separate small bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, smoked paprika, cumin, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create the marinade.
Pour the marinade over the pork cubes and toss to coat evenly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
Soak bamboo skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before grilling to prevent burning.
Chop the red onion and bell peppers into 1-inch pieces to match the size of the pork cubes.
Remove the marinated pork from the fridge. Begin threading the pork cubes onto skewers, alternating with pieces of red onion and bell peppers.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Once the grill is hot, place the skewers on the grill. Cook for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the pork is cooked through and has a nice char.
Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the kebabs warm, and enjoy a delicious Whole30 meal!
