Jerk Pork Pineapple Kabobs Recipes

GRILLED PORK AND PINEAPPLE KABOBS

Steps:

• Combine pork, soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, sesame oil, lime juice, Sriracha, ginger, and garlic in a large resealable bag. Seal and shake up to combine well. Refrigerate for 1 hour, turning occasionally.
• While the pork is marinating, soak skewers in water for about 20 minutes prior to using them. That will help the skewers to not burn up when exposed to the flame.
• Preheat an outdoor grill or indoor grill pan to medium-high heat and lightly grease the grates with a small amount of vegetable oil.
• Thread the skewers with marinated pork, pineapple, and red pepper, alternating back and forth; discard the marinade.
• Cook skewers on the preheated grill until they obtain grill marks and the pork is no longer pink, about 2 minutes per side. Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.

PINEAPPLE & PORK KABOBS

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.

PINEAPPLE PORK KABOBS

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.

JERK PORK & PINEAPPLE SKEWERS WITH BLACK BEANS & RICE

Steps:

• Mix together the pork, jerk seasoning, allspice, chilli sauce, if using, lime zest and juice, and some seasoning. Thread the pork and pineapple onto metal skewers (or pre-soaked wooden skewers) and brush with the oil.
• Cook rice following pack instructions. Drain well, then put back in the saucepan with the beans, stir and keep warm.
• Meanwhile, heat a griddle pan until very hot. Cook the skewers for 3 mins on each side until nicely charred and the pork is cooked through. Serve skewers with the beans and rice, extra chilli sauce, if you like, and lime wedges for squeezing over.
