Step 1
Cut the 1.5 lb pork shoulder into 1-inch cubes. In a bowl, toss with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp paprika, 1 tsp salt, and 0.5 tsp black pepper. Let marinate while you prep vegetables, about 10 minutes.
Step 2
Cut the 2 zucchinis into 1-inch rounds, the 2 bell peppers into 1-inch squares, and the 1 onion into wedges. Toss with remaining 1 tbsp olive oil and a pinch of salt.
Step 3
Thread pork and vegetables onto skewers, alternating pieces. Leave a small gap between pieces so they cook evenly.
Step 4
Preheat grill or broiler to medium-high. Cook skewers, turning occasionally, until pork is browned and cooked through and vegetables are charred at edges, about 12-15 minutes.
Step 5
Rest skewers for 5 minutes before serving. Serve hot with rice or flatbread if desired.
