How to Make Grilled Tuscan Pork Skewers

Making skewers on the grill are so easy and delicious! This meal can be whipped up in less than 10 minutes!

  1. Combine: Cut the pork tenderloin into 1-inch cubes. Add the zucchini, yellow squash, red bell pepper, and red onion in a medium-sized bowl.
  2. Toss: Add the olive oil and dried oregano, dried basil, dried thyme, dried rosemary, garlic powder, salt, and pepper and toss until coated.
  3. Grill: Thread the pork cubes on skewers along with the zucchini, yellow squash, red pepper, and onion. Grill for 8-10 minutes until the meat is done. Use a meat thermometer to make sure the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit. Remove from the grill and serve.

Can I Cook These in the Oven Instead?

Yes! If you don’t have access to a grill, you can cook these Grilled Tuscan Pork Skewers on a stovetop grill pan or bake the skewers in the oven at around 375 degrees Fahrenheit. The pork is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.

Tips and Variations

These tips and variations will help your meat and veggies in these Tuscan Pork Skewers turn out perfectly every time!

  • Soak the Skewers: To prevent your skewers from burning, it’s best to soak them in water before you cook for about 30 minutes. It takes a long time for the skewers to soak up the water, but well-soaked skewers, which are slow to give up their moisture, will last longer on the grill without burning up.
  • Temperature to Grill: I like to grill skewers on medium heat (350-450 degrees Fahrenheit. This allows them to cook without getting burnt but gives them that perfect charred top.
  • Can I use other vegetables instead? Absolutely! Feel free to customize the vegetable selection based on your preferences or what’s available. Just ensure that the vegetables you choose have similar cooking times to avoid overcooking or undercooking.
  • Can I use fresh herbs instead of dried ones? Yes, you can use fresh herbs instead of dried herbs. Remember that the flavors’ intensity may differ, so you may need to adjust the amounts accordingly.
