Pork And Pineapple Kabobs Recipes

Steps:

• Drain pineapple, reserving juice; refrigerate the pineapple. In a bowl, combine the pineapple juice, vinegar, brown sugar and pepper. Pour half of the marinade into a large resealable plastic bag; add the pork. Seal and turn to coat; refrigerate for 4 hours. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade for basting., Drain and discard marinade from pork. On metal or soaked wooden skewers, alternately thread the pork, pineapple and pepper. Grill kabobs, covered, over medium heat for 10-15 minutes or until vegetables are tender and meat is no longer pink, turning and basting occasionally with reserved marinade. Serve with rice if desired.

Steps:

• If using wooden skewers, soak them in water at least 30 minutes before cooking.
• Using a serrated knife, trim the pineapple and cut off the skin. Cut into 1 1/2-inch-thick rounds and then cut into chunks around the core; discard the core.
• Cut the onion in half vertically and then separate the onion into 2-to-3-layer portions. Cut the portions into 1 1/2-inch pieces.
• Preheat a grill or large grill pan over medium-high heat. Thread the pork, pineapple and red onion onto the skewers. Brush with oil and sprinkle with salt. Grill the skewers until lightly charred on the bottom, about 3 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce with the vinegar, agave nectar and sesame oil.
• Flip the skewers and brush with some of the soy mixture. Continue to grill, flipping every 2 minutes and brushing with the soy mixture, until lightly charred all over and the pork is just cooked, 6 to 8 minutes longer. Transfer to a platter, sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and serve.

Steps:

• Line a 15x10x1-in. baking pan with foil and grease the foil. On six metal or soaked wooden skewers, alternately thread the pork, green pepper, onion, mushrooms, cherries and pineapple. Place in prepared pan., In a small bowl, combine the preserves, brown sugar, butter, pineapple juice and cloves. Spoon half of the sauce over kabobs. , Bake at 375° for 20-30 minutes or until meat is tender, turning halfway. Baste occasionally with remaining sauce during the last 10 minutes of baking. Let stand 5 minutes before serving; serve with rice.

Steps:

• Mix first 3 ingredients in large bowl. Reserve 1/4 cup for later use. Add meat to remaining sauce; toss to coat. Refrigerate 15 min. to marinate.
• Heat grill to medium-high heat. Remove meat from marinade; discard marinade. Thread meat onto skewers alternately with pineapple, peppers and onions.
• Grill 12 to 14 min. or until meat is done, turning occasionally and brushing with reserved sauce.

Steps:

• In a large bowl whisk together the red-wine vinegar, the garlic paste, and the red pepper flakes, add the vegetable oil in a stream, whisking, and whisk the marinade until it is emulsified. Add the pork, stirring to coat it with the marinade, and let it marinate, covered and chilled, for at least 6 hours or overnight.
• In a bowl whisk together the ketchup, the distilled vinegar, the sugar, the soy sauce, the salt, and the sesame oil until the sugar is dissolved and reserve the sauce.
• Drain the pork, reserving the marinade, and thread it and the pineapple, alternating them, onto the skewers, using 4 pieces of pork and 3 pieces of pineapple on each skewer. Brush the kebabs with some of the reserved marinade and grill them on a rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals, basting them for the first 10 minutes with the reserved marinade and turning them, for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the pork is just cooked through but still juicy. Brush the kebabs with the reserved sweet-and sour sauce and grill them, turning them, for 2 minutes more. (Discard any remaining marinade; do not serve it as an accompaniment.)

Steps:

• In a large, glass or ceramic bowl, mix together the pineapple juice, lime juice, olive oil, and brown sugar. Add the chopped onions and stir to mix. Add the pork, toss to coat, cover, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or up to overnight, stirring several times during soaking.
• Trim and core the pineapple (or use commercially available fresh pineapple). Cut the fruit into 1 1/2 to 2 inch chunks. You will have about 4 cups of cubes, or about 18 cubes.
• Thread the pork, pineapple, peppers and onions on six 12-inch skewers. Each skewer should have approximately 6 cubes of meat and 3 cubes of pineapple. Discard the marinade.
• Grill for 12 to 15 minutes, turning several times, or until the meat reaches the desired degree of doneness and the pineapple is lightly charred. To check for doneness, insert an instant-read thermometer into a thick piece of meat. The thermometer should register 155°F or slightly higher.
• Remove the pork, pineapple and vegetables from the skewers and serve.
