Rosemary Grilled Pork Skewers made with boneless center cut pork marinated in fresh lemon juice, garlic, and rosemary; then skewered with fresh garden vegetables and grilled to perfection.
Today is Food on a Stick Day (I know, there’s a day for everything these days!) and since the weather is starting to warm up a bit, I thought I’d share these Rosemary Grilled Pork Skewers. They’re so easy to make, are healthy and loaded with fresh, aromatic flavors like lemon, garlic and rosemary.
The beauty of making a grilled meat skewer, or kabob if you prefer that term, is that you can add any vegetable you like and it will slightly change the flavor. My standard is to use some sort of mushroom, onion and tomatoes; then I add on others with what I happen to have in the house at that moment. This time I also used some zucchini, but eggplant, yellow squash and peppers would work well too. Enjoy!
