Grilled Pork Skewers With Chile Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whisk together the sherry, lemon juice, oregano, paprika, cumin, 3/4 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and the garlic.
• Place the pork in a medium glass bowl. Pour half of the marinade over the pork. Add the oil and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours.
• Pour the remaining marinade into a small saucepan. Add the cream, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and bring to a boil over medium heat. Boil until the sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Spray a grill pan or grilling rack with nonstick spray. Place the grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill.
• Remove the pork from the marinade. Discard the marinade. Thread 3 pieces of pork onto each skewer. Grill the skewers until the pork is golden and cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Place a skewer in each endive leaf. Drizzle the skewers with sauce and serve.

Steps:

• To make the marinade, heat the chile de Arbol powder, ancho chile powder, cayenne, and cumin for 45 to 60 seconds in a small saute pan over medium-low heat. Transfer the spice mixture to a small bowl, and whisk in the orange juice, water, garlic puree, cane syrup, and oregano. Gradually whisk in the oil in a steady stream.
• Season the meat with 1 teaspoon of the Cajun seasoning and the jerk seasoning. Place pork into a plastic resealable bag, add the marinade, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 8 hours and up to 24 hours.
• When ready to cook, heat a charcoal or gas grill. Remove the pork from the plastic bag and discard the marinade. Slice the tenderloin into 12 equal portions. Working with 1 piece at a time, place a piece of pork between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and pound out to a thickness of 1/8-inch. Complete with remaining tenderloin pieces. Combine the remaining 1/2 teaspoon Cajun seasoning with the salt, pepper, and chile de Arbol powder. Lightly brush both sides of the meat with olive oil and sprinkle with seasoning mixture. Thread each piece of pork onto a skewer (for stability, use 2 skewers for each piece of meat). Grill over medium-high heat for 6 to 7 minutes, turning occasionally. Serve immediately with Cilantro-Cucumber Tzatzki Sauce (see separate recipe).
• Preheat the oven to300 degrees.
• Place the garlic in a small ovenproof container and pour in the oil. Use additional oil if needed to completely immerse all the garlic cloves. Cover the container with aluminum foil and roast 1 hour, until garlic is soft and light golden brown.
• Strain the garlic and place in a blender along with 2 tablespoons of the oil. Puree to a smooth consistency, adding a small amount of oil if necessary. Pour into a container and cover the top of the puree with a thin layer of the oil. Cover and store in the refrigerator.
• Combine all ingredients in a small bowl until thoroughly mixed. Store in an airtight container. The spice mix keeps its best flavor for about 2 months.
• Combine all ingredients in a small bowl. Store in an airtight container. The mix can be kept for up to 2 months.

Steps:

• In a blender, combine all ingredients except pork and process until you have a smooth paste. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed: mixture should be salty, spicy and hot. Set about 1/2 cup of marinade aside to use as dipping sauce.
• Slice pork into 1-inch cubes and toss with rest of marinade until it is all well coated. Thread meat onto skewers, without crowding.
• Heat a grill, grill pan or broiler until quite hot; cook pork until brown all over, turning once, about 5 to 8 minutes total. Serve with reserved dipping sauce and garnish with lime wedges.

Steps:

• Combine pork belly, 1 red chile pepper, lemongrass, 3 tablespoons fish sauce, 3 cloves garlic, 1 teaspoon MSG, 1 teaspoon white sugar, and five-spice powder in a bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until marinated, 1 to 3 hours.
• Mix 1/4 cup fish sauce, 1/4 cup sugar, 1 red chile pepper, lime juice, 5 cloves garlic, and 1 teaspoon MSG together in a bowl. Let sit until dipping sauce flavors meld, 30 minutes to 1 hour. Pour in water.
• Thread the marinated pork belly onto bamboo skewers.
• Preheat grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate. Cook pork skewers, turning occasionally, until crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Serve with the dipping sauce.

Steps:

• Cut pork into 2-by-2-by-3/4-inch pieces. (You should have about 24 pieces.) Mix 1 tablespoon salt and 1 teaspoon chile powder. Use mixture to season pork on both sides.
• To skewer, lay meat flat on cutting board. Thread meat onto two skewers spaced equidistant from center; do this first with one skewer, then the other. Put 3 pieces of pork onto each set of skewers, for eight brochettes total.
• Cook the tomato (left whole) over hot coals or under broiler until charred and blackened, about 5 minutes. Cut in quarters but do not remove skin.
• In a blender or food processor, put 1/2 teaspoon salt, 2 tablespoons chile powder, the charred tomato, the garlic, the lime juice, the olive oil and 1 teaspoon cumin. Blend to obtain a smooth sauce and transfer to a bowl.
• Lay brochettes on a tray in 1 layer. Spoon 8 tablespoons chile sauce over pork and spread to cover evenly. (Save remaining sauce.) Leave at room temperature for 1 hour, or refrigerate several hours, then bring to room temperature.
• Grill over medium-hot fire for about 3 minutes per side. Sprinkle with remaining toasted cumin. Serve with reserved sauce.

Steps:

• For the suka: Put the vinegar, fish sauce, onions, sugar, garlic and chile in a medium bowl and stir together 10 seconds. Set aside for later.
• For the grilled pork skewers: Whisk together the soy sauce, ketchup, oyster sauce, sugar, lemon juice and 1 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Add the pork butt, cover and marinate at room temperature for at least 30 minutes and up to 2 hours. Alternatively, refrigerate and marinate overnight if time allows.
• Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat for 5 minutes.
• Carefully skewer 4 to 6 pieces of marinated pork butt per skewer, stacking evenly. Lightly sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt.
• Grill the pork skewers in batches if necessary, rotating each one a total of 4 times, until charred and deep golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Serve over rice with the suka for dipping. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Combine pork, soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, sesame oil, lime juice, Sriracha, ginger, and garlic in a large resealable bag. Seal and shake up to combine well. Refrigerate for 1 hour, turning occasionally.
• While the pork is marinating, soak skewers in water for about 20 minutes prior to using them. That will help the skewers to not burn up when exposed to the flame.
• Preheat an outdoor grill or indoor grill pan to medium-high heat and lightly grease the grates with a small amount of vegetable oil.
• Thread the skewers with marinated pork, pineapple, and red pepper, alternating back and forth; discard the marinade.
• Cook skewers on the preheated grill until they obtain grill marks and the pork is no longer pink, about 2 minutes per side. Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.

Steps:

• Cut pork into 1/8-inch-thick strips; place in non reactive dish.
• Prepare marinade : Combine all remaining ingredients except green onions in a small bowl.
• Pour marinade over pork; cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight.
• Thread pork slices ribbon style onto metal skewers (or bamboo skewers that have been soaked in water for 30 minutes), alternating pork with green onions.
• At this point, skewers can be tightly covered and refrigerated until grilling time.
• Grill over medium-hot heat about 3 minutes per side until no longer pink in center. Do not overcook.
