ANDALUCIAN PINCHITOS MORUNOS - MOORISH SAFFRON MEAT SKEWERS

Pinchitos Morunos (Moorish Skewers) are extremely popular as a Tapa, partuclarly in Andalucia. They are of Moorish origin, and are usually made from Lamb or Pork, I have used Chicken as the meat in this recipe, but I have listed other options! They are marinated in a Moorish saffron & spice mix and usually grilled outside and over charcoal or wood; however, they also cook beautifully on a griddle or in a heavy griddle type pan inside, during the cooler months. These are my favourite meat skewers and make a regular appearance on the "Al Fresco Lunch Table" during the Summer months. Great finger food for friends - or you can increase the quantities and make a meal of them. Serve them with a simple Tomato & Parsley Salad with my Sherry Vinegar Dressing, Flatbreads & Pickles for a true taste of Spain!

Steps:

  • Cut the chicken breasts,lamb or pork into cubes about 1" in size. Flatten them slightly with the palm of your hand.
  • Place the meat in a large bowl and add the dried spices, garlic & salt, saffron infused water, oregano, bay leaf and vinegar - mix thouroughly.
  • Then add the olive oil - mix again thoroughly, cover with cling film and leave in the fridge for between 2 & 12 hours, so the flavours mingle and marinade into the meat.
  • Light the barbecue about half an hour before cooking and allow the charcoal or wood to flare and then glow.
  • If cooking inside, turn the grill up to high, or use a smoking hot griddle or griddle pan.
  • Thread the meat on to the skewers.
  • Grill for about 5 minutes on each side, or until the outside is charred and the inside is still juicy but cooked. (NOT pink for pork and chicken - but pink for lamb).
  • Season well with salt and pepper and sprinkle with chopped flat leaf parsley or fresh coriander (Cilantro), serve with a selection of salads, flat breads, pickles and Sherry vinegar dressing.

PINCHO MORUNO

Pincho Moruno is a Moorish inspired dish that has been improved (I think) by the Spaniards. It can be used with lamb or pork. I suppose you could do chicken or beef also but have never tried it with them. Recipe can be doubled, tripled, whatever without a problem.

Steps:

  • Mix everything together, except the pork. Pour mixture into large freezer bag. Add the meat cubes & seal the bag tightly. Scoosh (is that a word?) the bag gently until all the meat is coated. Place bag in bowl in the fridge and let mixture marinate overnight, turning occasionally.
  • When ready to cook, place the meat on skewers (soak wood skewers in water for 20 minutes prior to putting the meat on them). Grill in covered BBQ over indirect heat, turning frequently until browned and cooked to your taste (slightly pink inside to well done). Slightly pink is better.
  • Enjoy!

6 tablespoons olive oil (I use a really good oil for the intense flavor)
1/2 teaspoon crushed thyme
3/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 bay leaf, crumbled
1 tablespoon minced parsley
2 -3 garlic cloves, crushed
salt and pepper
1 lb lean pork, cut in 1-2 inch cubes

  • Trim the pork of any excess flat and sinew. Cut into approx 1.5in/3cm dice - if using pork tenderloin, vcut in half lengthwise then cut into slices.
  • Mix together all the remaining ingredients - the spices (cumin, coriander, oregano, paprika, turmeric, fennel seeds, allspice and cinnamon), salt, lemon juice, olive oil and pepper into a paste. Add the diced pork, ensure it is well covered with the marinade then cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, but overnight would also be good.
  • When ready to cook, thread the pork onto skewers - try to put the pieces on so that they flatten out slightly and are even in thickness so they cook evenly.
  • Cook on the grill for a few minutes each side until just charring and cooked through - exact cooking time will vary depending on thickness of pork and grill heat etc.
