Equipment

Ingredients

1/2 pound pork loin, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1/2 medium red bell pepper, seeded and cut into 1/2-inch squares
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
Sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

Thread the pork onto 6 bamboo skewers, alternating the meat with 2 to 3 pepper squares per stick.
Mix together the garlic and dry spices and place on a dinner plate. Roll the kabobs in the spice mixture to lightly coat the meat. Note that at this point, the dish can be covered and refrigerated for 4 hours.
When ready to cook, heat a BBQ grill of your choice or preheat the oven to broil.
Grill or broil the kabobs for 5 to 7 minutes, turning once, until browned, firm and thoroughly cooked.

Notes

Serving size: 3 kabob skewers (1/2 recipe)

If you can find the Hatch chilies of New Mexico, or better, prepared Hatch Chile Salsa, serve the kabobs with it. If Hatch chilies are unavailable in your area, use any tomato or tomatillo salsa.
