Ingredients

  • 1.5 lb pork tenderloin
  • 12 slices bacon slices
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Cut the 1.5 lb pork tenderloin into 1-inch cubes. Wrap each cube with a slice of the 12 bacon slices, tucking the ends underneath.

  2. 2

    In a bowl, toss the wrapped pork with the 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp dried thyme, 0.5 tsp salt, and 0.25 tsp black pepper until evenly coated.

  3. 3

    Thread the wrapped pork onto skewers, leaving a small gap between pieces. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.

  4. 4

    Grill the kebabs for 10-12 minutes, turning every 3-4 minutes, until the bacon is crisp and the pork is cooked through (no pink inside).

  5. 5

    Let the kebabs rest for 2 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with extra thyme if desired.
