Pork Skewers with Garlic

• 500g diced pork
• 6 cloves garlic
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• to taste salt and black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

👨‍🍳 Step-by-step instructions

1. 1

   Step 1: In a large bowl, mix the diced pork with chopped garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Let marinate for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate deeply into the meat.

2. 2

   Step 2: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Remove the meat from the marinade and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until well browned and cooked to the desired point. Serve hot, sprinkled with crispy fried garlic and accompanied by your favorite grilled or salad vegetables.

💡 Chef's tip

Sear the pork at 220°C for 2-3 minutes on each side to activate the Maillard reaction, which will give a more intense flavor and a more appetizing texture. Then, reduce the heat and cook over low heat so that the meat finishes cooking gently without burning.

📝 Our take

Estos anticuchos son una explosión de sabores: el ajo chispeante se funde con la jugosidad del cerdo y la especia del ají amarillo. Al comerlos, sientes la tradición peruanista y la audacia de un marinada que resalta cada corte. Cada bocado te invita a descubrir el carácter vibrante de la cocina de Lima. Un verdadero homenaje al mestizaje culinario.

🍷 Wine & food pairing

Prueba un tinto joven de la DO Ribera del Duero; su fruta afrutada y taninos suaves equilibran la grasa del cerdo y la intensidad del ajo. La acidez de la región corta la sensación grasosa sin competir con los sabores.
