Pork and Chorizo Kebabs

GOOD TO KNOW Kebabs are a good way to incorporate vegetables into from-the-grill dinners. They also allow you to use a small amount of a high-fat food, such as the chorizo in the pork kebabs, to maximum effect. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for thirty minutes before grilling.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 4

Ingredients

2 boneless pork loin chops (6 to 8 ounces each), cut into 16 pieces
1 small onion, quartered and layers separated
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for grill
1 tablespoon red-wine vinegar
Coarse salt and ground pepper
4 ounces dried chorizo sausage, halved lengthwise and cut into 1/2-inch pieces

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    In a large bowl, combine pork, onion, oil, and vinegar; season with salt and pepper. Marinate at room temperature 1 hour (or cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate up to overnight).

    Step 2

    Heat grill to medium; clean and lightly oil hot grates. Dividing ingredients evenly, thread pork, onion, and chorizo onto four skewers, beginning and ending with pork; season with salt and pepper. Grill kebabs, covered, until pork is cooked through, about 13 minutes, turning occasionally.
