Grilled Pork Kabobs With Vegetables Italy Recipes

30 MINUTE PORK AND VEGETABLE KEBABS

Steps:

• If using the oven, preheat to 400F. If you're using wooden skewers, soak them in water while preparing the ingredients.
• Dice the pork loin filet into 1-2 inch cubes. Try to keep the cubes small and consistent in size, so they cook quickly.
• Combine all the diced vegetables (bell peppers through mushrooms) in a large bowl and toss them with olive oil, salt and pepper.
• Assemble the kebabs by alternating between the diced pork, various vegetables, and pineapple pieces.
• Roast or grill the kebabs for about 15-20 minutes, or until the pork is fully cooked to an internal temperature of 170F. Remove from heat, allow to cool 5 minutes before serving, and garnish with diced scallions.

• Preheat the grill on medium-high heat.
• When the grill is nice and hot, add the skewers and cook for 15 minutes, rotating them one quarter at a time.
• While cooking, you can spread the marinade on the skewers using the rosemary sprig as a brush.

ITALIAN PORK KABOBS

Steps:

• Prepare outdoor grill for direct medium-hot grilling. For a gas grill, preheat grill on high. Adjust temperature to 400°F For a charcoal grill, build fire and let burn until coals are covered with white ash. Spread coals and let burn for 15-20 minutes.
• Whisk vinegar, 1 teaspoon salt, and hot red pepper together in large bowl. Whisk in oil. Add basil, oregano, and garlic. Add pork loin and toss to coat. Spread zucchini and bell peppers on top of pork, season with remaining ½ teaspoon salt, and let stand 5 minutes. Stir to coat with marinade. Do not marinate longer than 15 minutes. Skewer pork, zucchini, and bell peppers, alternating ingredients, onto 6 metal kabob skewers. If using wood skewers, soak for at least 30 minutes before using.
• Lightly oil cooking grate. Place kabobs on grill and cover grill. Cook, turning occasionally, for about 10-12 minutes or until pork is browned. Let stand for 3 minutes, then serve.

GARLIC PORK KABOBS

Steps:

• Stir the stock, cornstarch, brown sugar, ketchup and vinegar in a 1-quart saucepan until the mixture is smooth. Cook and stir over medium-high heat until the mixture boils and thickens. Remove the saucepan from the heat.
• Thread alternately the pork, mushrooms and onion onto 4 skewers.
• Lightly oil the grill rack and heat the grill to medium. Grill the kabobs for 20 minutes or until the pork is cooked through, turning and brushing often with the stock mixture. Place 1 tomato onto the end of each skewer.

GRILLED MARINATED VEGETABLE KABOBS

Steps:

• Wash and cut peppers, onions and broccoli spears. With a damp cloth, gently wipe debris from mushrooms.
• Carefully spear vegetables onto bamboo skewers. I like to arrange the veggies in the order of pepper, onion, broccoli & mushroom. Note: If desired, you may soak the bamboo skewers in water before using, but I feel it is not necessary due to their being soaked well with the marinade.
• Place skewers in a large, rectangular resealable container. Pour dressing liberally over veggies. Marinate for 6-12 hours or overnight, making sure to carefully flip the container upside-down and shake occasionally to redistribute the dressing.
• Grill for 10-15 minutes over medium-high heat or until vegetables reach the desired crisp, done-ness.
• To serve, slide vegetables off the skewer onto each person's plate.
