1 ½ tablespoons honey

Instruktioner

Preheat the BBQ to medium-high heat and spray with oil if needed. If using a skillet/stove, see the instructions below.

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 10 minutes before using. This will prevent them from burning too quickly.

Cut the pork and vegetables and set them aside.

Combine the marinade ingredients in a bowl and whisk.

Add the pork to a large mixing bowl and pour over ⅔ of the marinade. Toss through, then add the vegetables and continue to toss through, rubbing the marinade into the meat and veggies with your hands.

Make the skewers with alternating pieces of meat and vegetables. I like to do a piece of pork followed by onion and zucchini, then another piece of pork followed by onion and pepper, and so on.

Cook the skewers on the BBQ for 10 minutes on each side, and a minute or two on the edges. For 2-3 minutes of those 10 minutes, close the BBQ hood/lid. Brush with the remaining marinade halfway through and also once served on a platter.

Broiling Instructions for Pork Skewers

Set your oven to broil and allow it to preheat. Place the assembled pork and vegetable skewers on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil or baking paper. Position the baking sheet about 6 inches from the broiler. Broil the skewers for 10-12 minutes, turning once halfway through cooking. Brush the skewers with the remaining marinade halfway through broiling and again after removing them from the oven. Ensure the pork is cooked through and the vegetables are slightly charred.
