GRILLED PORK SHISH KABOBS

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl (or ziploc bag), combine chopped pork, 1 Tbsp Italian seasoning, 1 1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp black pepper and stir until well combined. Separate onion pieces and add them to the bowl. Add 2 Tbsp olive oil and toss to combine. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours and preferably overnight.
• Thread the kabobs onto metal skewers*, alternating between meat and onion. For even browning, the meat and onions should be just touching on the skewers and not crowded together. Let your skewers stay at room temperature for 30 minutes before placing on the grill.
• Preheat your grill to Medium/high heat (400˚F). Add skewers in a single layer and grill for 8-10 minutes total. Meat skewers turn like a triangle so we cook about 3 minutes per side on all 3 sides. Grill until cooked through and meat reaches at least 145˚F internal temperature. Rest skewers 3 minutes before serving.

MARINATED PORK KEBABS

Steps:

• Cut pork into 1" cubes and place in a shallow pan.
• Combine remaining ingredients in a screw top jar and shake until well blended.
• Pour marinade over pork.
• Cover and refrigerate several hours, turning occasionally.
• Drain meat; pat dry and tread on skewers.
• Heat remaining marinade to brush on kebabs during cooking.
• Broil slowly 5" from coals for about 25 minutes.
• Turn skewers frequently and brush with marinade during cooking.
• Vegetables may also be served in this way.
• Thread mushrooms, green peppers, onion wedges or apple on skewers and brush with marinade.
• Broil for 15-20 minutes.

OREGANO & LEMON PORK KEBABS

Steps:

• For the marinade combine all ingredients in a resealable plastic bag or non-reactive bowl.
• Trim the pork of all visible fat and cut into 1 inch cubes. Place cubes in bag and marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes. (You can also toss the vegetables in if you like. Mushrooms and zucchini are especially good in absorbing the flavor.).
• In the meantime soak wooden skewers in water.
• Wash and cut vegetables for kebabs.
• Thread kebabs alternating between the pork cubes and vegetables. Depending on the size of your pork cubes and the length of the skewers, you will have 1 large or 2 small skewers per person.
• Place on indoor or outdoor grill and cook for 8 to 10 minutes.

PORK, LEMON & POTATO KEBABS

Steps:

• Cook the potatoes in boiling salted water for 10-12 minutes until barely tender. Drain well. Trim the pork of any excess fat and cut the meat into 3cm cubes. Thread the pork alternately with the potatoes on to 8 skewers.
• First get the barbecue going or put the grill on to heat up. Mix the chopped rosemary, olive oil and lemon juice together and season with salt and pepper.
• Brush the marinade over the pork and potatoes. Barbecue or grill for 14 minutes, turning once and brushing again halfway through cooking. Serve with lemon wedges.

PORK & PEACH KEBABS WITH LITTLE GEM SALAD

Steps:

• Soak eight wooden skewers in cold water for at least 5 mins. Cut the pork into large cubes. Halve and stone the peaches, then cut into chunks. Grate the zest from half the lemon and squeeze out the juice. Reserve 1 tbsp of the juice, then mix the remainder with the zest and honey. Alternately thread the pork and peach slices onto the skewers. Brush all over with the honey and lemon mix, then grill or barbecue for 10-12 mins, turning regularly, until cooked.
• Separate the lettuce leaves and mix with the watercress. Whisk the reserved lemon juice with the olive oil, mustard and a little seasoning. Toss with the salad leaves and serve with the kebabs.

GREEK-STYLE PORK KABOBS

Steps:

• In a bowl mix the first 9 ingredients until well blended.
• Add in the pork cubes and place into a large resealable bag; seal and refrigerate for 8-24 hours turning the bag occasionally to coat pork cubes evenly with the marinade.
• Remove the pork cubes from the bag and thread on skewers.
• Season the pork cubes with seasoned salt and black pepper.
• Grill over medium-high heat turning occasionally for about 5 minutes or until the pork is cooked to desired doneness.
