Ingredients

  • 1 lb pork tenderloin, trimmed of external fat
  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon peanut butter or 1 tablespoon sesame tahini
  • 1 teaspoon peeled and minced fresh ginger
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed limes or 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Method

  • Slice the pork as thinly as you can (it's easier if you freeze it for 15 to 20 minutes first).
  • Cut the slices into pieces, about 1 1/2 inches is diameter.
  • Mix together the remaining ingredients and stir the pork into them. Let sit for a few hours or overnight, refrigerated.
  • Thread the pork onto skewers without crowding, reserving the marinade.
  • Grill or broil until browned all over, a total of 5 to 8 minutes.
  • While the meat is cooking, bring the marinade to a boil and reduce it slightly. Use as a dipping sauce.
