Ingredients

  • Pork tenderloin - 300 grams
  • Coconut aminos - 3 tablespoons
  • Lime juice - 2 tablespoons
  • Garlic - 2 cloves, minced
  • Ginger - 1 tablespoon, grated
  • Cayenne pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Ground cumin - 1/2 teaspoon
  • Coconut milk - 100 ml
  • Peanut butter (sugar-free) - 2 tablespoons
  • Sesame oil - 1 tablespoon
  • Salt - to taste
  • Wooden skewers - 4 (soaked in water for 30 minutes)

Steps

  1. Cut the pork tenderloin into 2.5 cm cubes and place them in a bowl.
  2. In a separate bowl, mix the coconut aminos, lime juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, cayenne pepper, ground cumin, and salt to create a marinade.
  3. Pour the marinade over the pork cubes, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes.
  4. While the pork is marinating, prepare the peanut sauce by combining coconut milk, peanut butter, and sesame oil in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir until smooth and heated through, then set aside.
  5. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
  6. Thread the marinated pork cubes onto the soaked wooden skewers.
  7. Grill the skewers for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the pork is cooked through and has nice grill marks.
  8. Serve the skewers hot with the peanut sauce drizzled over the top or on the side for dipping.
