Tuscan Pork Kebabs

Tuscan Pork Kebabs Recipe

How about some tasty Pork Kebabs? Cooked Tuscan Style they make a great change for a mid-week meal. Serve with Sautéed chard, or spinach or kale .... the choice is yours. They taste good. 

Ingredients:
Serves 4 (2 kebabs each)
4 teaspoons olive oil
1 tablespoon grated lemon rind
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 pound pork tenderloin, trimmed and cut into 1-inch cubes
16 (1-inch) pieces red bell pepper
16 (1-inch) pieces yellow bell pepper
Cooking spray

Preparation:
1. Prepare grill to medium-high heat.

2. Combine olive oil, grated lemon rind, salt, pepper, and crushed garlic in a large bowl, stirring well. Add pork; marinate at room temperature 15 minutes, tossing occasionally.

3. Thread pork and bell peppers alternately onto each of 8 (8-inch) skewers. Place skewers on a grill rack coated with cooking spray; grill 10 minutes or until pork is done, turning occasionally.

If using Sautéed chard: Heat a large skillet/frying pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to pan, and swirl to coat. Add 8 cups chopped stemmed Swiss chard, 1 tablespoon minced garlic, and 1/8 teaspoon salt; sauté for 5 minutes or until chard wilts

This tasty low carb dish works out at 4.5 carbs per serving.
