Pinchos, or pinchos de carne, are a beloved street food in Puerto Rico, inspired by the Spanish tradition of skewered meats but infused with vibrant Caribbean flavors. These kabobs typically feature marinated pork (pinchos de cerdo) or chicken (pinchos de pollo), cubed and grilled to perfection over an open flame or grill. The marinade often includes Adobo and Sazón seasonings, staples of Puerto Rican cuisine, which lend a savory, aromatic depth.
