Ingredients
- pork tenderloin fillet 700g trimmed, cut into 3cm cubes
- ancho chilli flakes 1 tbsp, (see notes below)
- garlic granules 2 tbsp
- ground coriander 1 tbsp
- rice vinegar 2 tbsp
- caster sugar 2 tbsp
- sriracha (or other Asian chilli sauce) 2 tbsp
- lime 1, zested and ½ juiced
- vegetable oil 2 tbsp
- pineapple 350g, cut into similar-sized cubes to the pork
Method
-
Step 1
Put all the ingredients, except the pineapple, in a bowl and mix really well to ensure the pork is well coated. Cover and marinate in the fridge for 2-3 hours or overnight. Marinating the pork will ensure every bite is juicy and tender when cooked.
-
Step 2
Soak 8-10 wooden skewers in cold water for 30 minutes or use metal skewers. Remove the pork from the fridge about 20 minutes before you are ready to cook.
-
Step 3
Skewer the pieces of pork alternately with chunks of pineapple until both are used up. Heat a griddle pan over a medium-high heat or cook over indirect heat on a BBQ.
-
Step 4
Grill the skewers for 3-4 minutes per side (so 12-16 minutes in total), until the pork is caramelised and cooked through and the pineapple charred. Rest on a plate for 5 minutes before serving.
Buy ancho chilli flakes from Sainsbury’s or at coolchile.co.uk – you can substitute regular red chilli flakes but you’ll only need around 1 tsp as they are much hotter.
