Preparation
Step 1
Whisk together vinegar, oil, and mustard. Stir in shallot, capers, bell peppers, and salt and black pepper to taste.
Cook beans in boiling salted water until tender, about 3 minutes. Transfer to bowl of ice water. Return water to a boil and cook orzo per package directions. Drain orzo and beans. Add to vinaigrette, tossing to combine.
Heat grill to medium heat.
Thread each skewer with 4 pieces of pork, alternating with onion. Put tomatoes in grill pan. Grill both, turning occasionally, about 4 minutes for tomatoes and 12 to 15 minutes for kebabs.
Add basil to orzo. Divide kebabs, grilled tomatoes, and orzo salad among 4 plates. Serve immediately.
