Ingredients
- 1 pound pork tenderloin
- 3 tablespoons raw honey
- 3 tablespoons coconut aminos
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic
- 1 inch piece fresh ginger
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 8 pieces bamboo skewers
Directions
Step 1
Cut the pork tenderloin into 1-inch cubes and set aside.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine raw honey, coconut aminos, olive oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, sea salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Mix well to create the marinade.
Step 3
Place the pork cubes into the marinade, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, ideally overnight, for maximum flavor.
Step 4
Soak the bamboo skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent them from burning on the grill.
Step 5
Once the pork has marinated, thread the cubes onto the soaked skewers, leaving a little space between each piece to ensure even cooking.
Step 6
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using charcoal, ensure the coals are nice and hot with a light ash coating.
Step 7
Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the pork is cooked through and has a nice char on the outside.
Step 8
Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Step 9
Serve warm and enjoy as a delicious Paleo meal with a side of fresh greens or roasted vegetables.
