Korean Kebabs

4.3
(12)

These Korean-inspired kebabs are juicy and really easy to prepare — in the oven or on a BBQ grill. I've made these for years, and they're still a huge favorite with family and friends. I serve them with mushroom rice and garlic bread. This is a sauceless recipe, but the meat is so succulent you don't need it.

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup vegetable oil

  • ¼ cup soy sauce

  • 1 tablespoon peanut butter

  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped spring onion

  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds

  • 1 clove garlic, crushed

  • teaspoon red chili powder, or to taste

  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

  • 1 ½ pounds pork tenderloin, cut into cubes

  • 1 onion, cut into chunks, or to taste

  • 1 (8 ounce) package fresh mushrooms, or to taste

  • 1 large red bell pepper, cut into chunks, or to taste

  • 1 zucchini, cut into chunks, or to taste

Directions

  1. Mix oil, soy sauce, and peanut butter together in a bowl until blended and creamy. Stir in spring onion, sesame seeds, garlic, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Add pork to marinade; turn to coat. Cover and refrigerator for 2 to 4 hours.

  2. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.

  3. Thread pork, onion, mushrooms, bell pepper, and zucchini onto skewers. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and pour marinade over skewers.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until pork is tender and browned, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Tips

You can use chicken breast instead of pork tenderloin.

You can cook these on a BBQ grill if preferred. Grill over indirect heat for about 10 minutes, turning every 4 minutes or so.
