Instructions
1
Prep
Cut pork tenderloin into 1-inch cubes and toss with minced garlic, smoked paprika, sherry vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper until evenly coated.
2
Marinate
Cover and chill the pork mixture in the refrigerator for 30 minutes so flavours penetrate the meat.
3
Build
Thread pork cubes onto a metal skewer, alternating with bell pepper and onion chunks.
4
Grill
Cook the skewer over high heat for 10–12 minutes, turning every 2–3 minutes, until pork is firm with no pink inside and charred in spots.
5
Toss
Combine the drained cannellini beans and chopped parsley with a squeeze of lemon juice in a small bowl.
6
Plate
Spoon the bean and parsley salad onto a plate, lay the grilled skewer on top, and serve with the remaining lemon wedge.
