Ingredients

• 1 lb pork tenderloin
• 2 cups pineapple (fresh, cubed)
• 1 unit red bell pepper
• 1 unit yellow bell pepper
• 1 unit red onion
• 0.25 cup soy sauce
• 2 tbsp honey
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic (minced)
• 0.5 tsp ground ginger
• 0.25 tsp black pepper
• 0.5 tsp salt
• 8 unit wooden skewers

Directions

Step 1

Cut the pork tenderloin into 1-inch cubes and set aside.

Step 2

Peel and core the pineapple, then cut it into 1-inch chunks.

Step 3

Slice the red and yellow bell peppers into 1-inch pieces. Peel and cut the red onion into 1-inch wedges.

Step 4

In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, olive oil, minced garlic, ground ginger, black pepper, and salt to create the marinade.

Step 5

Add the pork cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 4 hours for more flavor).

Step 6

Soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent them from burning on the grill.

Step 7

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F).

Step 8

Thread the marinated pork, pineapple chunks, bell peppers, and red onion onto the soaked wooden skewers. Alternate the ingredients for a colorful presentation.

Step 9

Place the kebabs on the preheated grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the pork is cooked through and the vegetables are tender. The pork should reach an internal temperature of 145°F.

Step 10

Remove the kebabs from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 11

Serve warm as a main dish with your favorite sides, such as rice or a fresh salad.
