Ingredients
- 1 pound Pork tenderloin
- 0.25 cup Coconut aminos
- 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 3 cloves Minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)
- 8 Wooden or metal skewers
Directions
Step 1
Start by soaking wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes if using, to prevent burning.
Step 2
Trim any excess fat from the pork tenderloin and cut into 1-inch cubes.
Step 3
In a medium bowl, combine coconut aminos, olive oil, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, apple cider vinegar, grated ginger, salt, and black pepper to make the marinade.
Step 4
Add the pork cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, ideally 1-2 hours, to allow the flavors to develop.
Step 5
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Step 6
Thread the marinated pork cubes onto the skewers, leaving a bit of space between each piece to ensure even cooking.
Step 7
Place skewers on the preheated grill and cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the pork is cooked through and has grill marks. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
Step 8
Once cooked, remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes.
Step 9
Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve immediately with your choice of Whole30-friendly sides.
