Instructions
- Step 1: In a mixing bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp honey, 2 tbsp freshly squeezed lime juice, 3 minced garlic cloves, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper to create the marinade.
- Step 2: Add 1 lb of 1-inch cubed pork tenderloin to the marinade, tossing to coat thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.
- Step 3: Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Thread marinated pork cubes onto skewers, leaving slight gaps between pieces.

- Step 5: Meanwhile, in a small bowl combine 1/4 cup each of chopped fresh cilantro, mint, and parsley with 1/4 tsp red chili flakes if using, and a pinch of salt. Toss to make a fresh herb salsa.
- Step 6: Serve the grilled pork skewers hot, topped with the fresh herb salsa for a bright contrast.
