Grilled Toothpick Meat

Method

1. 01

   Step 1

   Wash the pork shoulder and cut it into 1.5 cm cubes. You can also use pork tenderloin, but I still think pork shoulder tastes better.

   Step 2

   Place the meat chunks in a large bowl and season with cumin powder, chili powder, five-spice powder, and salt.

   

3. 03

   Step 3

   Then add light soy sauce, oyster sauce, peanut oil, and sesame oil.

   

4. 04

   Step 4

   After mixing well, cover with plastic wrap and marinate for about two hours. If time permits, you can put it in the refrigerator to marinate for a longer time, which will make it more flavorful.

   Step 5

   While marinating the meat, wash the toothpicks and soak them in warm water. Then, use one toothpick to pierce a piece of meat.

   Skewer all the meat pieces one by one, place them evenly on a baking tray, and try not to overlap them.
