Ingredients

  • 1.5 pounds pork shoulder
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 4 garlic cloves
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 bell peppers
  • 1 red onion
  • 8 skewers

Directions

Step 1

Cut the pork shoulder into 1-inch cubes and place in a large bowl.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, soy sauce, minced garlic, paprika, cumin, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to form the marinade.

Step 3

Pour the marinade over the pork and mix thoroughly to ensure even coating. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or overnight for enhanced flavors.

Step 4

While the pork is marinating, cut the bell peppers and red onion into similarly sized chunks as the pork.

Step 5

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.

Step 6

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Step 7

Thread the marinated pork cubes, bell peppers, and red onions onto the skewers, alternating between meat and vegetables.

Step 8

Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the pork is cooked through and has a nice char, and the vegetables are tender.

Step 9

Remove from the grill and let the kebabs rest for a few minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve hot with your choice of side dishes, like salad or pita bread.
