Grilled Jerk Pork Skewers Recipe
- 1 habanero or Scotch bonnet chile, seeded
- 1 cup lightly packed fresh cilantro
- 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 4 scallions, white and green parts, lightly chopped
- 6 medium cloves garlic
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh ginger
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 1 tablespoon ground allspice
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 3 pounds pork loin, cut into 1-inch cubes
- Bamboo skewers, soaked in water for at least 30 minutes prior to use
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated lime zest
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 teaspoons honey
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- Place all of the ingredients for the paste in the jar of a blender and blend until smooth. Place pork chunks in large Ziploc bag and pour in the paste, seal and toss to evenly distribute; open and reseal the bag, removing as much air as possible. Let marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the ingredients for the sauce. Set aside.
- While the charcoal is lighting, thread the pork chunks onto the skewers.
- When all the charcoal is lit and covered with gray ash, pour out and spread the coals evenly over the charcoal grate.
- and
- the grilling grate. Place the skewers on the grill and cook until the meat is cooked through, about 6 to 8 minutes, turning three or four times during grilling. Serve immediately with the honey-lime sauce.
