Cubes of pork tenderloin and green pepper chunks get a spicy treatment from a combination of peanut butter, brown sugar, ginger, and red pepper flakes. Reserving half of this mixture to use for basting adds an extra boost of flavor.
-- Ellen Koch, St. Martinville, Louisiana


You Will Need
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup lime or lemon juice
1/4 cup peanut butter
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1 pork tenderloin (about 1 pound), cut into 1-inch cubes
2 medium green peppers, cut into 1-inch pieces


What to Do
1. In a large bowl, combine the first seven ingredients; mix well. Set aside 1/2 cup for basting; cover and refrigerate.

2. Pour remaining marinade into a large resealable plastic bag or shallow glass container; add pork and turn to coat. Seal or cover and refrigerate for 2-3 hours, turning occasionally. Drain and discard the marinade.

3. On metal or soaked bamboo skewers, alternate pork and green peppers. Grill, uncovered, over medium heat for 6 minutes, turning once. Baste with reserved marinade.

4. Grill 8-10 minutes longer or until meat juices run clear, turning and basting frequently.
