Hoisin Glazed Pork And Veggie Skewers Recipes

GLAZED VEGGIE SKEWERS

Steps:

• Preheat a grill on medium-high heat.
• Warm the teriyaki sauce and sugar together in a small saucepan over low heat and stir until the sugar dissolves.
• Cut the bell peppers into 1 1/2-inch pieces. Cut the white and light green parts of the spring onion into 1-inch pieces (discard the dark greens or reserve for another use).
• Thread the vegetables on six skewers, 2 pieces of pepper for every 1 piece of onions. Grill the vegetables until charred in spots and lightly cooked, about 6 minutes. Baste both sides of the skewers with the glaze a few times, turning often so that it chars in spots, about 1 minute. Transfer the skewers to a platter and drizzle the remaining glaze on top. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve.

RICE BOWL WITH VEGGIE FLOWERS AND HOISIN

Steps:

• Slice the sides of the peppers off in 4 pieces. Place the pepper pieces skin-side up and press down to flatten slightly. Use your favorite small cookie cutters to cut out as many shapes as possible. (Use the bottom of a measuring cup to help push the cutters through the pepper).
• Place the peas in a strainer and rinse briefly under warm water just to remove their chill. Blot dry.
• Toss the rice, vinegar, oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and few grinds of pepper together in a large bowl. Evenly divide the rice among 4 lunch containers with lids. Top each with some of the pepper shapes, some of the peas and 1 teaspoon hoisin sauce. Pack 2 tablespoons sesame snack sticks separately with each serving.

HOISIN-GLAZED PORK AND VEGGIE SKEWERS

Steps:

• For the marinade and mop: Whisk together the ginger, garlic, soy sauce, vermouth, sesame oil, vinegar and sugar in a measuring cup. Pour 1/4 cup of the marinade into a small bowl, whisk in the hoisin sauce and set this basting "mop" aside.
• For the kebabs: Toss the remaining marinade with the pork in a medium bowl, then cover and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Carefully thread onto a skewer 1 piece of pork, 1 snow pea folded over a water chestnut slice (the pea will crack on one side, but it will help hold in the water chestnut), a piece of red pepper and a piece of baby corn; repeat twice, then end with a piece of orange, skin side facing the last baby corn. Repeat with the remaining skewers and ingredients.
• Prepare a grill for cooking over medium-high heat. Brush the skewers with the vegetable oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Lightly oil the grill grates. Grill the skewers until the pork is cooked through and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a piece registers 140 degrees F, 7 to 8 minutes per side. Brush the skewers with the mop, and continue grilling until the mop caramelizes, about 1 minute. Serve with iced tea.
• For the iced tea: Pour 4 cups boiling water over teabags in a heatproof pitcher and allow to brew, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove teabags and add sweetener to taste. Stir in 6 cups ice cubes until melted. Keep refrigerated until ready to use. Makes two quarts.

MOLASSES-MUSTARD GLAZED PORK SKEWERS

Steps:

• Heat grill to high. Whisk together the molasses, mustard, and honey in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Skewer 1 piece of pork onto 2 skewers so that the meat lies flat. Brush the meat with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill for 2 to 3 minutes per side or until cooked through, brushing with the glaze every minute. Remove from the grill and brush with more of the glaze. Serve immediately.

HOISIN-GLAZED PORK KABOBS

Steps:

• Combine hoisin sauce, ketchup, chili,green onion, and ginger; set aside.
• Season pork cubes with pepper. Thread pork and pineapple onto skewers; grill over direct heat for about 4 minutes, turn and glaze with hoisin mixture. Continue cooking on grill until pork browns, about 8-10 minutes total cooking time.

HOISIN-GLAZED PORK

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the first seven ingredients. Place pork in a shallow 1-qt. baking dish coated with cooking spray; pour sauce over pork. , Bake, uncovered, at 400° for 15-20 minutes or until a thermometer reads 160°.

PORK AND SNAP PEA KEBABS WITH GINGER-HOISIN GLAZE

Steps:

• Heat a grill to medium. Clean and lightly oil hot grill. In a small bowl, stir together hoisin sauce, soy sauce, ginger, and rice vinegar.
• Alternately thread pork tenderloin, scallions, and snap peas onto four 8-inch skewers. Grill, turning occasionally, until pork is cooked through and vegetables are charred, about 9 minutes. Brush kebabs with hoisin mixture and cook 1 minute more, turning once, until mixture begins to bubble.

HOISIN-GLAZED PORK BOWL WITH VEGETABLES

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine hoisin, ketchup, honey, ginger, Sriracha, garlic and five-spice powder.
• Season pork with 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, then add to the marinade. Toss to evenly coat, cover, and set aside. You can let the pork marinate, covered and refrigerated for up to 24 hours, or you can cook it right away.
• Heat oven to 375 degrees. Heat oil in a large (12-inch) nonstick, oven-proof skillet over medium-high. Remove pork from marinade, letting excess drip back into the bowl. (Reserve marinade.) Sear pork for 2 to 3 minutes on the first side and about 2 minutes on the other, until nicely browned and caramelized.
• Remove from heat and pour remaining marinade over the pork, turning to coat evenly. Transfer pan to the oven and cook, turning in the sauce occasionally, for 10 to 20 minutes, or until an instant-read thermometer reads 145 degrees. (The smallest piece of pork, from the thin end of the tenderloin will be done first, so begin checking temperature at 10 minutes and remove pieces from the oven as they are done.)
• Meanwhile, prepare the vegetables: Use a peeler to shave the carrots lengthwise into strips. Slice the radishes paper-thin using a mandoline. Thinly slice the scallions on an angle.
• Transfer pork to a plate and set aside to rest. Add rice wine vinegar and 2 tablespoons of water to the skillet and cook over medium-high, stirring constantly until you have a smooth sauce, adding more water if needed. It should be the consistency of heavy cream. Transfer to a small bowl, stirring in any juices that accumulated from the plate with the pork.
• Distribute rice among 4 bowls. Thinly slice the pork and divide among the bowls. Drizzle the sauce over the pork and rice and garnish each bowl with the carrots, radishes, scallions, snow peas and pickled ginger, if using. Serve immediately.
