Grilled Pork Skewers With Couscous Recipes

GRILLED PORK SKEWERS WITH COUSCOUS

Steps:

• Mix mustard, honey, lemon juice, thyme, salt, pepper, 1 tablespoon oil, and half the garlic in a large bowl. Add pork; cover and let stand for at least 1/2 hour.
• Heat remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Add remaining garlic and the onion. Cook until translucent, about 4 minutes; add zucchini and peppers, raise heat, and cook until just soft, about 5 minutes more. Add couscous and 1 cup boiling water; stir well. Turn off heat, cover, and let sit for 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Heat grill or grill pan to medium hot; brush with oil. Thread pork on skewers; season with salt and pepper. Grill on each side until done. Serve over couscous.

GRILLED PORK STEAKS WITH ZUCCHINI COUSCOUS

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium. Cook the couscous as the label directs. Mix the yogurt, harissa, 1 tablespoon water, and salt to taste.
• Slice the pork almost in half lengthwise, stopping about 1/2 inch from the bottom, then open like a book. Cover with plastic wrap and pound with a meat mallet or heavy-bottomed skillet until the pork is about 3/8 inch thick. Remove the plastic. Mix 1 tablespoon olive oil, the garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste, then rub all over the pork.
• Toss the zucchini with 1/2 tablespoon olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste.
• Grill, turning once, until lightly charred, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board and chop. Grill the pork, turning once, until just cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board and let stand 5 minutes.
• Toss the couscous, zucchini, tomato, lemon juice, parsley, the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Cut the pork into 4 pieces and serve with the couscous and yogurt sauce.

GRILLED-PORK SKEWERS

Steps:

• Prepare a charcoal grill or preheat the broiler. Soak 20 bamboo skewers in cold water to cover for 20 minutes.
• In the bowl of a food processor, combine the coconut milk and peanuts and process until the mixture forms a fairly smooth paste. Transfer to a large bowl and stir in the scallions, fish sauce, garlic, chili pepper, sugar and black pepper. Add the pork cubes and toss to coat. Set aside to marinate for 20 minutes.
• Drain and pat the bamboo skewers dry. Thread 3 pork cubes on each skewer and grill or broil on a broiler pan, turning as needed, until the pork is nicely browned and cooked all the way through, about 6 minutes. Serve immediately.

EASY GRILLED PORK SKEWERS

Steps:

• Heat grill pan over medium heat.
• On each skewer, thread onion, tomato and pork, repeating twice.
• In small bowl, mix pesto and olive oil. Brush mixture on skewers.
• Grill about 6 minutes on each side or until pork is no longer pink in center.

GRILLED PORK SKEWERS WITH CHILE SAUCE

Steps:

• Whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, cilantro, garlic, sugar, and black pepper in a bowl.
• Skewer 2 pieces of pork onto 2 skewers so that the meat lies flat. Place the pork skewers in a large baking dish. Pour the marinade over and turn to coat the pork. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 4 hours.
• Heat grill to high. Remove the skewers from the marinade and grill the meat on both sides until slightly charred and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Serve with Chili Sauce on the side for dipping.
• Combine all ingredients in a small bowl. Cover and let sit at room temperature for at least 1 hour before serving.

BARBECUED PORK SKEWERS

Steps:

• Slice the pork shoulder in half lengthwise. Cut each piece across into thin, 1/8-inch slices.
• Transfer pork to a mixing bowl and add garlic, onion, brown sugar, salt, pepper, paprika, cumin, and cayenne. Mix with your hands until thoroughly combined.
• Wrap in plastic wrap and transfer into a refrigerator for 4 hours, or up to overnight.
• Preheat an charcoal grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Weave pork slices on metal skewers, folding the longer pieces in half as you go. Slices should be pressed snugly together as you build the skewer.
• Grill skewers over the hot charcoal until browned and no longer pink, turning frequently, about 30 minutes. Brush on barbecue sauce and turn skewers several times so the sauce caramelizes, about 10 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (71 degrees C). Serve immediately.

GRILLED PORK AND MUSHROOM SKEWERS

Steps:

• Mix together the garlic, salt, pepper, and vinegar. Marinate the pork cubes in the refrigerator in this mixture for at least 3 hours.
• Heat up the grill, and thread on 8 skewers a piece of pork, a few squares of prosciutto, a sage leaf, a few layers of the onion, and a mushroom. Continue in this manner until all the ingredients are used.
• Brush the skewers lightly with the oil, season with additional salt and pepper, and grill until the pork is golden brown, about 10 minutes per side.

MARINATED GRILLED BBQ PORK SKEWERS

Steps:

• Place cut pork shoulder in a gallon sized resealable bag.
• In a mixing bowl, whisk together minced garlic, soy sauce, lime juice, ketchup, brown sugar, salt, pepper and ginger ale.
• Pour marinade in the bag over pork.
• Seal bag and place in the refrigerator for 4-8 hours, or overnight.
• Remove pork from bag and thread onto bamboo skewers that have soaked in water for 20 minutes (to prevent charring).
• Heat grill to high heat and grill skewers for 8-10 minutes, rotating during cooking, until cooked through.
