Steps

  1. Gather all ingredients.

  3. Add pork, onions, and bell peppers, and stir until coated. Cover and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours.
  4. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  5. Remove pork and vegetables from marinade and shake off excess; thread onto skewers. Discard remaining marinade.
