Ingredients

  • 500 g Pork tenderloin
  • 4 tbsp Soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp Oyster sauce
  • 2 tbsp Honey
  • 1 tbsp Sesame oil
  • 3 Garlic cloves (minced)
  • 1 tsp Ground black pepper
  • 0.5 tsp Chili flakes (optional)
  • 1 tbsp Vegetable oil
  • 1 Lime (for garnish)
  • 10 g Fresh cilantro (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Trim excess fat from the pork tenderloin and slice it into thin, even strips (about 1/4 inch thick).

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, oyster sauce, honey, sesame oil, minced garlic, ground black pepper, and chili flakes (if using). Whisk to create a smooth marinade.

Step 3

Add the pork strips to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are well-coated. Cover and let the pork marinate in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes (or up to 4 hours for deeper flavor).

Step 4

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Brush the grates lightly with vegetable oil to prevent sticking.

Step 5

Thread the marinated pork strips onto skewers, leaving a small gap between pieces for even cooking (if you're using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes beforehand).

Step 6

Grill the pork threads for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and lightly charred. Avoid overcooking to keep the meat tender and juicy.

Step 7

Transfer the skewers to a serving platter. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the grilled pork for a bright, zesty kick.

Step 8

Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro if desired. Serve hot with your choice of dipping sauce, steamed rice, or salad greens.
