1
Prepare the Marinade
In a bowl, combine the red wine, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
2
Marinate the Pork
Cut the pork into 2 cm cubes and add it to the marinade. Ensure the pork is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight for best results.

3
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
4
Grill the Pork
Remove the pork from the marinade and thread the cubes onto skewers. Grill the pork skewers for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until fully cooked and slightly charred.

5
Prepare the Potatoes
Peel the potatoes and cut them into small cubes, about 1 cm each.
6
Fry the Potatoes
In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the cubed potatoes in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes per batch. Remove and drain on paper towels. Season with salt.

7
Serve the Dish
On a serving plate, place a generous portion of the fried potatoes and top with the grilled pork cubes. Enjoy your Picadinho!
