Pincho Moruno

Submitted by NannyMarvel

"Pincho Moruno is a Moorish inspired dish that has been improved (I think) by the Spaniards. It can be used with lamb or pork. I suppose you could do chicken or beef also but have never tried it with them. Recipe can be doubled, tripled, whatever without a problem."

 

• Ready In: 24hrs 30mins
• Ingredients: 10
• Serves: 3

ingredients

• 88.74 ml olive oil (I use a really good oil for the intense flavor)
• 2.46 ml crushed thyme
• 3.69 ml ground cumin
• 2.46 ml paprika
• 4.92 ml crushed red pepper flakes
• 1 bay leaf, crumbled
• 14.79 ml minced parsley
• 2-3 garlic cloves, crushed
• salt and pepper
• 453.59 g lean pork, cut in 1-2 inch cubes

directions

1. Mix everything together, except the pork. Pour mixture into large freezer bag. Add the meat cubes & seal the bag tightly. Scoosh (is that a word?) the bag gently until all the meat is coated. Place bag in bowl in the fridge and let mixture marinate overnight, turning occasionally.
2. When ready to cook, place the meat on skewers (soak wood skewers in water for 20 minutes prior to putting the meat on them). Grill in covered BBQ over indirect heat, turning frequently until browned and cooked to your taste (slightly pink inside to well done). Slightly pink is better.
3. Enjoy!

It was so-so. I had pad thai as the side, and that worked well with it, but the meat was still bland. Needed more heat from peppers.
