Yellow Pincho Seasoning Food

PINCHOS (SPANISH KEBABS/TAPAS - PORK, LAMB, PRAWNS OR CHICKEN)

Steps:

• Place the onion, garlic, sweet and hot paprikas, 2 tsp of the salt, the oregano, peppercorns, thyme, cumin, cinnamon, bay leaf, vinegar, wine (if using) and olive oil in a mini food processor and process to a paste.
• Place the pork in a bowl and rub a little salt on it. Scrape the marinade into the bowl with the meat and toss to combine thoroughly.
• Cover the bowl and refrigerate the pork for 4-6 hours, tossing a few times. Let the meat come to room temperature before grilling.
• Light the grill and preheat it to medium-high or preheat a large ridged grill pan to medium-high over medium heat.
• When ready to cook, thread the meat onto the skewers and brush it with a little olive oil.
• Cook the meat, brushing with olive oil and turning once, until it is just cooked through, 5-7 minutes. (If you are cooking lamb and would like it medium-rare, don't cook it quite so long). Serve the kebabs at once.

Steps:

• Combine 1/2 cup sofrito, 1/3 cup olive oil, 1 1/2 tablespoons each sazón and adobo seasoning, 1 1/2 teaspoons each onion powder and granulated garlic and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a bowl.
• Toss with 2 1/2 pounds pork tenderloin (cut into 2-inch cubes); marinate overnight.
• Thread the meat onto skewers, leaving space at the bottom of each. Grill over medium-high heat for 3 minutes per side. Flip again and cook 2 more minutes. Brush with barbecue sauce, flip again and cook 2 more minutes. Remove from the grill, brush with more barbecue sauce and let rest 5 minutes. To serve, add a piece of grilled bread to each skewer.

PINCHOS

Steps:

• Combine the sofrito, oil, sazon, adobo, onion powder, granulated garlic and black pepper in a large bowl. Add the pork and toss to coat. Marinate the meat at least overnight or 12 hours for best results.
• When ready to cook, remove the meat from the refrigerator. Drain off and discard the marinade. Preheat a grill to 450 degrees F or medium-high heat. Thread the meat onto 12- or 14-inch skewers, leaving a 3-inch space at the bottom of each skewer.
• Place the skewers on the grill and grill for 3 minutes. Carefully flip the skewers and grill the other side for 3 minutes. Flip the skewers again and cook for an additional 2 minutes on the other side, then brush the pinchos with barbecue sauce. Flip once more and cook until the pinchos are browned and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the pork registers 145 degrees F, about 2 minutes more. Remove from the grill, brush again with barbecue sauce, and rest 5 minutes before serving. Toast the slices of bread on the grill; skewer one slice onto the top of each pincho.
