Ingredients

  • 2 jalapenos halved and seeded
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh cilantro
  • 3 cloves garlic smashed
  • 2 tbsps freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 lb pork tenderloin cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 1 bell pepper diced
  • 3 cups pineapple chunks
  • 1 red onion diced
  • Metal or wooden skewers
  • Vegetable oil for cooking

Instructions

  • Combine jalapenos, cilantro, garlic, lime juice, and olive oil in the bowl of a food processor or blender. Blend until well combined, adding water if necessary to achieve desired consistency. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Thread kebabs alternately with the pork, peppers, pineapple, and onions. Brush each kebab lightly with oil, season the pork with salt and pepper on both sides, and grill for about 5 minutes per side, turning once, or until the pork is completely cooked through.
  • Remove kebabs from grill and serve immediately with cilantro jalapeno sauce.
