Ingredients
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup lime juice
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 2 green peppers, cut into chunks
- 1 pound pork, cut into bite-sized pieces
Instructions
-
Prepare the Marinade: In a large mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, lime juice, lemon juice, creamy peanut butter, brown sugar, minced garlic, crushed red pepper flakes, and ground ginger. Stir until well blended.
-
-
Reserve Marinade: Set aside 1/2 cup of the marinade for basting during grilling. Cover and refrigerate the reserved marinade.
-
Marinate the Pork: Pour the remaining marinade into a large resealable plastic bag or shallow container. Add the pork pieces, ensuring they are well coated. Seal the bag or cover the container and refrigerate for 2-3 hours, turning occasionally to ensure even marination.
-
Prepare for Grilling: After marinating, drain the pork and discard the used marinade. Thread the marinated pork and green pepper chunks alternately onto metal skewers or soaked wooden skewers.
-
Grill the Kabobs: Preheat your grill to medium heat. Place the skewers on the grill and cook uncovered for 6 minutes, turning once.
-
Baste and Continue Grilling: Baste the kabobs with the reserved marinade. Grill for an additional 8-10 minutes or until the pork is cooked through and the juices run clear, turning and basting frequently to ensure even cooking and flavor.
-
Serve: Once done, remove the kabobs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy these flavorful, nutty kabobs with your favorite sides for a delightful summer meal.
