Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 3 tsps oregano leaves
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 lb pork tenderloin

Directions

  • Soak 8 bamboo skewers in warm water for at least 30 minutes. While the skewers are soaking, cut pork tenderloin into 1" cubes.
  • In large bowl, whisk together lemon juice, oil, garlic, oregano and pepper. Add pork and stir to coat.
  • Marinate for 10 minutes (can be made ahead of time and marinate up to 24 hours in the refrigerator). While the pork is marinating, preheat the broiler. Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray or line with foil. Set aside.
  • Thread pork onto 8 skewers and lay on the baking sheet so they are not touching. Brush the skewers with remaining marinade, using all the marinade.
  • Place the skewers in the broiler 6 inches away from heat for 6 minutes. Turn the skewers and cook an additional 6 minutes.
