60 minutes
Pork skewers are a fragrant dish of American cuisine that combines simplicity of preparation with rich flavor. A marinade of olive oil, red wine, lemon juice, and spices gives the meat tenderness and intense Mediterranean herb aromas. Garlic and bay leaves add zest, while fresh lemon makes the taste bright and refreshing. Grilling creates an appetizing crust while preserving the meat's juiciness. This dish is perfect for summer picnics and friendly gatherings. It is served with fresh vegetables or light sauces that highlight the meat's richness. With each bite, you'll experience a harmony of flavors that transforms a simple recipe into a true gastronomic delight.
