How to Make this

1. In a big bowl, mix together the soy sauce, olive oil, lemon juice, honey, garlic, fresh thyme, black pepper, and paprika. Stir well to make the marinade.

2. Place pork tenderloin cubes in a bowl, then add marinade until all meat is completely submerged. Seal with plastic wrap and chill for 2 hours, or overnight for best results.

3. Soak wooden skewers in water for a minimum of 30 minutes before grilling so they do not burn.

4. Set your grill to medium-high heat.

5. Take the marinated pork from the refrigerator. Assemble the meat onto skewers, making sure to alternate between the pork pieces and bell pepper segments. Disc and cut the red onion into wedges, and place them onto skewers with the pork and bell pepper.

6. Put the skewers on the grill that’s been heated up. Let them cook for something like 10-12 minutes. Plus, do turn them, so they’re not all lopsided and half-baked. That way, you’ll end up with pork that’s all browned and cooked through.

7. If desired, during grilling, baste the brochettes with the leftover marinade to make them more flavorful.

8. Verify that the pork is done by checking that the internal temperature has reached 145°F (63°C).

9. Take the brochettes off the grill and let them sit for a couple of minutes before dishing them up, allowing the juices to redistribute and making for an overall better eating experience.

10. Place the brochettes on a serving platter and savor them while hot, alongside any side dishes or dipping sauces you prefer.

Pro Tips

1. Marination Time: For deeper flavor penetration, marinate the pork overnight. This allows the acidity in the lemon juice to tenderize the meat further, resulting in more succulent bites.
