  • 4

Ingredients

  • 1 pineapple, peeled and cut crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick slices
  • 1 jalapeño, seeded and finely chopped
  • 1 cup  roughly chopped fresh cilantro leaves
  • 1 tablespoon  fresh lime juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon  freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons  olive oil
  • 1 3/4 teaspoons  kosher salt
  • 3 tablespoons  chili powder
  • 4 6-ounce boneless pork loin chops, cut into 1-inch cubes

Preparation

Step 1

Directions

Heat grill to medium-high. Grill the pineapple slices for 2 minutes per side. Cut into a small dice, discarding the pieces
of core.

In a bowl, combine the pineapple, jalapeño, cilantro, lime juice, pepper, 1 tablespoon of the oil, and ¾ teaspoon of the salt.
Set aside.

Combine the chili powder and the remaining teaspoon of salt in a large bowl. Add the pork and the remaining tablespoon of
oil and toss to coat.

Thread the pork onto four 12-inch skewers. Grill the kebabs, turning every 2 minutes, until cooked through, about 15 minutes
total.

Serve the kebabs alongside the pineapple salsa.
