Description

Spicy Jamaican jerk-seasoned pork skewers grilled to perfection and topped with a refreshing mango salsa.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound pork tenderloin, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 tablespoons Jamaican jerk seasoning
  • 1 red bell pepper, cut into chunks
  • 1 green bell pepper, cut into chunks
  • 1 onion, cut into chunks
  • 2 mangoes, diced
  • 1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 jalapeno, seeded and minced
  • Juice of 2 limes
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, toss the pork cubes with Jamaican jerk seasoning and let marinate for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator.
  2. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
  3. Thread the marinated pork, bell peppers, and onion onto skewers.
  4. Grill the skewers for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the pork is cooked through.
  5. While the skewers are grilling, prepare the mango salsa by combining diced mangoes, red onion, cilantro, jalapeno, lime juice, and salt in a bowl.
  6. Serve the grilled skewers topped with the fresh mango salsa.

Notes

For extra heat, add more jerk seasoning or fresh chili peppers. Ensure skewers are soaked in water if using wooden ones to prevent burning.
