Tropical Coconut-Lime Pork Kebabs

Healthy Fact of the Day

Pork tenderloin is a lean and tender cut of meat that's perfect for grilling. It's also a good source of protein, thiamin, and vitamin B6, which support energy metabolism and nervous system function.

Ingredients

 

  • 1 1/2 lbs pork tenderloin, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 red onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 can (13.5 oz) coconut milk
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Wooden skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes
  • Fresh cilantro leaves for garnish

 

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, lime juice, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, ginger, cumin, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
  2. Add the cubed pork tenderloin to the bowl and toss to coat evenly with the marinade. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 4 hours, to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.
  3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  4. Thread the marinated pork cubes onto the soaked wooden skewers, alternating with pieces of red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and red onion.
  5. Grill the pork kebabs for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the pork is cooked through and the vegetables are tender and lightly charred.
  6. Remove the kebabs from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
  7. Garnish the tropical coconut-lime pork kebabs with fresh cilantro leaves and serve hot.

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!

Arby’s Just Made Its Best Value Meal Even Better

The Meat & 3 Box includes a Peach Cobbler Roll as one of the three sides — a sweet dessert item that adds calories most people don’t factor into a fast food meal. Swapping your mindset around the box helps: treat the Peach Cobbler Roll as dessert and eat it last rather than alongside your sandwich, which naturally slows the overall pace of the meal and makes it easier to stop before you’re overly full. The Buffalo Ranch Chicken Sandwich is also a solid protein source — choosing Curly Fries over Potato Cakes is a modest calorie reduction if you’re watching your intake, since the fries are typically lighter in total fat.

The Cook Who Feeds Themselves Well: A Guide to Solo Cooking at Its Best

Research on solo eating and dietary quality has found a complex picture that complicates the simple narrative that eating alone is nutritionally inferior to eating with others. While shared meals are associated with greater dietary variety and higher vegetable consumption on average, solo eaters who cook for themselves regularly — who apply genuine attention to the meals they prepare alone — demonstrate dietary quality comparable to or better than people who eat primarily in social settings but rely on restaurant or processed food. The determinant of dietary quality in solo eating is not the absence of company but the presence of cooking — the act of preparing food from whole ingredients for oneself, regardless of audience, is what most strongly predicts nutritional quality in solo eating contexts.

Garlic Butter Baked Chicken Breast

Combining butter and olive oil in the basting mixture means you get the flavor complexity of butter and the stability of olive oil’s monounsaturated fats with a smaller amount of each than either alone would require. Chicken breast is one of the leanest, highest-protein cuts available, and the basting method keeps it juicy without adding significant additional fat beyond the modest amount in the basting mixture.
