Sizzling Spicy Pork Skewers

Healthy Fact of the Day

Pork is a good source of protein and essential nutrients like vitamin B12, zinc, and selenium. Gochujang, the Korean chili paste used in this recipe, contains capsaicin, which may boost metabolism and have anti-inflammatory properties. The garlic and ginger in the marinade offer additional health benefits, including potential immune-boosting and anti-inflammatory effects.

Ingredients

 

  • 2 lbs pork shoulder, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp gochujang (Korean red chili paste)
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 2 tbsp sesame oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger
  • 1 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped
  • Sesame seeds for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, gochujang, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes.

  2. Add pork cubes to the marinade and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 2-4 hours.

  3. Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.

  4. Preheat grill to medium-high heat.

  5. Thread marinated pork onto skewers, discarding excess marinade.

  6. Grill skewers for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until pork is cooked through and slightly charred.

  7. Transfer to a serving plate and sprinkle with chopped green onions and sesame seeds.

  8. Serve hot, with extra gochujang sauce on the side if desired.

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

Fresh-squeezed orange juice provides vitamin C, folate, and potassium while delivering natural sweetness without refined sugar. Using a dry sparkling wine keeps the cocktail lighter than sweeter alternatives, and the tequila’s agave base means fewer congeners than darker spirits. As always, enjoy responsibly and alternate with water to stay refreshed throughout your Taco Tuesday celebration.

The Eggplant Manifesto: In Defense of Summer’s Most Misunderstood Vegetable

Eggplant skin contains nasunin — an anthocyanin antioxidant found in the deep purple pigment of the skin that has demonstrated specific neuroprotective properties in research, appearing to protect cell membranes from free radical damage. Eggplant also contains significant amounts of chlorogenic acid, one of the most potent antioxidant compounds found in plant foods, which has been associated with reduced inflammation and improved blood pressure regulation in clinical studies. The specific preparation of flame-roasting eggplant whole — which is common in Mediterranean and South Asian cooking — preserves these compounds in the flesh while the skin is removed, making it one of the more nutritionally complete eggplant preparations available.
