Grilled Pork Tenderloin Satay Recipes

Steps:

• Prepare the skewers: Put pork in a mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, stir together shallot, garlic, ginger, lemongrass, cumin, coriander, turmeric, cayenne, fish sauce, lime juice, soy sauce, brown sugar and coconut milk, and pour over meat. Toss with your hands to coat well. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes or overnight. Meanwhile, soak 12 bamboo skewers in water.
• Prepare the cucumbers: Put cucumbers in a mixing bowl and season with salt. Add lime juice, sugar, shallots and chiles and toss to coat. Let stand for 15 minutes. Check seasoning, then transfer to a serving dish.
• Prepare the peanut sauce: Pulse the peanuts briefly in a food processor just until finely ground. Add the garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, fish sauce, lime juice, cayenne and coconut milk, and process until well puréed. Transfer to a bowl, then taste and adjust seasoning. Thin a bit with lime juice or water as desired.
• Thread 2 slices of pork onto each bamboo skewer, keeping the meat as flat as possible. Grill over hot coals, under the broiler or on a stovetop grill pan for 3 minutes on each side, until cooked through and lightly browned. Transfer to a platter and garnish with cilantro and basil leaves. Serve with cucumber relish and peanut sauce.

Steps:

• Place meat in a large resealable plastic bag. In a medium bowl, mix together honey, Dijon mustard, chili powder, and salt. Pour marinade over tenderloins, seal, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
• Prepare the grill for indirect heat.
• Lightly oil grill grate. Remove meat from marinade, and discard liquid. Grill for 15 to 25 minutes, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix peanut butter, green onions, soy sauce, lemon juice, brown sugar, garlic, coriander, and cayenne pepper; add pork, and stir to coat. Cover, and marinate in the refrigerator at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat grill for high heat. Thread marinated pork, water chestnuts, green bell pepper, red bell pepper, and sweet onion alternately onto skewers. Transfer remaining marinade to a small saucepan, bring to a boil, and cook for several minutes.
• Lightly oil grate. Cook skewers for 10 minutes, or to desired doneness. Turn skewers while grilling to cook evenly, and brush with boiled marinade during last few minutes.

Steps:

• Trim meat, and cut into thin, angled slices about 3 inches long and 1 inch wide. Place in a bowl. In an ungreased saute pan, heat the coriander seeds and cumin for several minutes over medium heat to bring out flavor. Add to the bowl.
• Prepare the marinade. In a food processor fitted with a steel blade or in a blender with the motor running, add the shallots, garlic, ginger, turmeric, lemon grass, soy sauce and brown sugar. Blend to a fine paste, and add to the meat. Toss lightly to coat. Cover with plastic wrap, and let marinate for 30 minutes.
• Prepare the peanut sauce. In a food processor fitted with a steel blade or in a blender with the machine running, puree the shallots, garlic, lemon grass, peanut butter, coconut milk, tamarind juice, chili paste, brown sugar and soy sauce.
• Thread the meat slices through the bamboo skewers, and prepare a fire for grilling or the broiler. Place on a baking sheet about 3 inches from the source of heat. Grill 6 to 7 minutes, turning once, until the pork is cooked. Remove and serve the sauce for dipping.
