Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1 pound pork shoulder or tenderloin cut into cubes

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, combine olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, honey, garlic, smoked paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper.
  • Add the pork cubes to the marinade, turning to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
  • Before cooking, soak wooden skewers in a shallow tray filled with water for 30 minutes, to prevent burning on the grill.
  • Thread the marinated pork onto the skewers, leaving space at each end of the skewer.
  • Prepare the grill for medium-high heat. Grill the skewers for 10–12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the pork is cooked through, reaching 145°F on an instant-read thermometer.
  • Serve hot with dipping sauces or remove from skewers to plate as part of a meal.
