Lunch: Pork Kebabs with Orange and Thyme

We like to use pork in these kebabs, but lamb or chicken would also benefit from this marinade. If you use wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes before grilling.

Ingredients

1/4 c. fresh orange juice
1 tbsp. freshly grated orange zest
Orange wedges
5 clove garlic
2 tbsp. coarsely chopped fresh thyme
1 tbsp. Dijon mustard
Coarse salt
Freshly ground pepper
1/4 c. extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/4 lb. boneless pork loin

Instructions

Whisk together orange juice and zest, garlic, thyme, mustard, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Whisking constantly, pour in oil in a slow, steady stream; whisk until emulsified. Add pork; toss to coat. Cover bowl with plastic wrap, and let pork marinate 20 minutes at room temperature
Heat a grill or grill pan until medium-hot. Thread 5 or 6 cubes of pork onto each of 4 skewers; season with salt and pepper. Discard marinade. Grill pork, turning occasionally, until cooked through and slightly charred, about 12 minutes. Garnish with thyme sprigs, and serve with orange wedges. Looking for more dinner options?
