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!

Wendy’s Just Added 7 New Items to Its Spring Menu — Including a Permanent New Frosty

When adding heat to a meal, jalapeños are actually a surprisingly nutritious choice — they’re low in calories and contain capsaicin, a compound that may support metabolism and reduce inflammation. If you’re building a spicier fast food order, pairing a jalapeño-topped item with water instead of a sugary drink is an easy way to keep the meal more balanced while still enjoying the heat. And if you end up ordering the Cookie Dough Frosty Fusion, opting for a small size is a great way to satisfy the craving without going overboard on calories.

One Can of Coconut Milk, Five Completely Different Uses

Canned coconut milk is higher in saturated fat than most plant-based milks, but a little goes a long way — and the payoff in flavor means you’re not reaching for butter or heavy cream to get the same richness. If you want a lighter option, look for “lite” coconut milk, which has significantly less fat and still works well in soups, rice, and chia pudding. For the whipped cream, though, you’ll want the full-fat version — lite won’t whip up the same way.
