Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 pounds pork tenderloin, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 13.5-ounce can coconut milk
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus more for the grill
4 cloves garlic, smashed
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon packed dark brown sugar
1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro, plus more for topping
2 tablespoons fish sauce
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons Sriracha (Asian chile sauce)
Romaine lettuce leaves, for serving
Chopped roasted peanuts, scallions and cucumber, for topping

Steps:

  • Toss the pork with half of the coconut milk, the vegetable oil, garlic, 1/3 cup each brown sugar and cilantro, and 1 tablespoon each fish sauce, lime juice and Sriracha in a large bowl. Cover and refrigerate 1 to 4 hours.
  • Preheat a grill to medium and lightly brush the grates with vegetable oil. Thread the pork onto eight 10-inch skewers. Grill the kebabs, turning occasionally and brushing with the remaining coconut milk, until marked and cooked through, about 12 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine 1 tablespoon water and the remaining 1 tablespoon each brown sugar, fish sauce, lime juice and Sriracha in a small bowl. Serve the kebabs in romaine leaves and drizzle with the sauce. Top with chopped peanuts, scallions, cucumber and cilantro.
  • If you're using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 20 minutes to prevent scorching.

These kebabs are a great way to use up leftover pork. I also added some chopped vegetables to the skewers and it was a delicious and healthy meal.

A bit bland. I think it needs more spices.

These kebabs are so easy to make and they always turn out perfect. I love that I can throw them on the grill or cook them in the oven.

Followed the recipe exactly and the pork was a bit dry. I think I'll try marinating it for longer next time.

The coconut and lime flavors really shine through in this dish. I served it with a side of grilled pineapple and it was a perfect summer meal.

A bit too tangy for my taste, but my husband loved them!

I used chicken instead of pork and it turned out great! The marinade is so flavorful and versatile.

These coconut and lime pork kebabs were an absolute hit at my last barbecue! The flavors were incredible - the coconut and lime marinade gave the pork a wonderfully tangy and tropical taste. The pork was also so tender and juicy, thanks to the skewer
