A delightful twist on traditional kebabs, combining aromatic spices with tender pork and fresh vegetables.
Prepare the marinade by combining olive oil, cumin, salt, cinnamon, ginger, oregano, and garlic powder in a mixing bowl.
Mix the spices thoroughly to ensure even distribution of flavor.
Cut the pork tenderloin into bite-sized cubes and the zucchini and bell pepper into similar-sized pieces.
Uniform sizes help the ingredients cook evenly.
Toss the pork, zucchini, and bell pepper in the marinade, ensuring all pieces are well coated. Let it sit for 15 minutes.
Marinating allows the flavors to infuse into the meat and vegetables.
Thread the marinated pork, zucchini, and bell pepper onto skewers, alternating between ingredients.
Leave a small gap between pieces on the skewer for even cooking.
Grill or broil the skewers for 6 minutes on each side, or until the pork is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
Serve the skewers hot, optionally garnished with fresh herbs or a squeeze of lemon juice.
Fresh herbs like parsley or cilantro add a burst of freshness to the dish.
