Mojo Pork Kebabs (on a stick)

    1/3 cup olive oil, plus more for grill
    4 cloves garlic, minced
    1 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
    3 tablespoons lime juice (from 2 limes)
    1/4 cup orange juice (from 2 oranges), plus 1 orange, cut into 16 pieces
    2 pork tenderloins (about 2 pounds total), cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
    1 large English cucumber, cut into 1-inch rounds
    Salt and pepper

In a small pot, combine oil, garlic, and red-pepper flakes over medium-low. Cook until garlic is soft, 15 minutes, swirling occasionally. Remove from heat, stir in lime and orange juices, and let cool 15 minutes.

In a zip-top bag, toss pork with half the marinade and refrigerate at least 30 minutes (or up to 12 hours); refrigerate remaining marinade.

Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high. Clean and lightly oil hot grill. Thread pork, orange, and cucumber onto skewers. Season with salt and pepper. Grill kebabs 3 to 5 minutes per side for medium. Brush with reserved marinade and serve.
