Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons dry white wine
  • 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 1/4 pounds pork tenderloin, cut into eighteen 3-inch lengths
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 1/2 pound very thinly sliced soppressata

Method

  • In a large bowl, mix the wine with the olive oil.
  • Add the pork and turn to coat.
  • Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • Drain the pork and discard the marinade.
  • Lightly season the pork with salt and season generously with pepper.
  • Overlap 2 slices of soppressata on a work surface; put a length of pork in the center and roll it up in the soppressata.
  • Repeat with the remaining soppressata and pork.
  • Strip 2 inches of leaves from the thick end of the rosemary branches.
  • Using a sharp paring knife, whittle the ends to points.
  • Thread 2 onion wedges onto each branch followed by 1 pork bundle; repeat twice.
  • Light a grill.
  • Lightly brush the grate with vegetable oil.
  • Grill the skewers over a medium-low fire, turning until the pork and onions are cooked through and the soppressata is crisp, about 12 minutes.
  • Serve at once.
