Ingredients
•
1 pound pork tenderloin, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
•
1/2 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
•
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
•
2 tablespoons brown sugar
•
2 tablespoons sesame oil
•
1 tablespoon lime juice
•
1 teaspoon Sriracha sauce
•
1 teaspoon ground ginger
•
1 teaspoon minced garlic
•
10 bamboo skewers
•
2 teaspoons vegetable oil, or as needed
•
3 cups cubed fresh pineapple
•
2 red bell peppers, cut into cubes
•
3 green onions, thinly sliced
•
1 teaspoon sesame seeds
Directions
1
Combine pork, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, brown sugar, sesame oil, lime juice, Sriracha, ginger, and garlic in a large resealable plastic bag. Squeeze out excess air and seal the bag; shake to combine and coat pork with marinade. Marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour, turning occasionally.
2
While pork is marinating, soak skewers in water for about 20 minutes; that will help keep skewers from burning while grilling.
3
Preheat an outdoor grill or indoor grill pan to medium-high heat and lightly grease the grate with oil.
4
Meanwhile, thread skewers, alternating with marinated pork, pineapple, and bell pepper pieces; discard marinade.
5
Cook on the preheated grill until grill marks appear and pork is no longer pink, about 2 minutes per side. Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.
