Servings: 4 People
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
- 1 clove garlic (minced)
- 1 pound pork loin (cut into 1-inch cubes)
- 1 bell pepper (red, yellow, or orange)
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- In a large bowl or plastic container, mix together the olive oil, mustard, maple syrup, rosemary, garlic, salt and pepper until well blended. Add the pork cubes and turn in the mixture to coat; refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight.
- Soak eight 8 to 12-inch wooden skewers in water to cover for at least 30 minutes.
- Core and seed the bell pepper, and cut it into 1-inch pieces.
- Preheat the broiler or grill. Skewer the pork cubes and bell peppers, dividing them evenly between the skewers. Discard the remaining marinade.
- Grill or broil the kebabs, for 6 to 8 minutes total, turning as they brown, until they are just cooked throughout.
Notes
Please use real maple syrup…or actually brown sugar would also be great. And if you don’t have fresh rosemary, you can use 1/2 teaspoon of dried rosemary.
