Royal Tine Kabobs Recipes

A.1. VEGGIE KABOBS

Steps:

• HEAT grill to medium-high heat. REMOVE stems from mushrooms; discard. Cut mushroom caps in half; thread onto 8 skewers alternately with remaining vegetables and pineapple. Brush with oil. MIX A.1. and preserves until blended. GRILL kabobs 10 min. or until peppers and onions are crisp-tender, turning frequently and brushing generously with A.1. mixture.

GIANT ROTISSERIE KEBAB

Steps:

• Prepare a rotisserie according to the manufacturer's instructions for cooking over high heat.
• Whisk the oil, vinegar, oregano, red pepper flakes, 1 tablespoon salt and several grinds of black pepper in a medium bowl. Pour half into another bowl, reserving one for after everything is cooked.
• Thread the rotisserie spit with a spit fork and then thread 2 pieces of meat, 1 piece of onion, 1 piece of each color bell pepper and 1 squash (or 1 zucchini piece). Repeat with the remaining ingredients and secure tightly with another spit fork. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper and place on the rotisserie. Brush the meat and vegetables with the sauce to coat and cook until it starts to brown, about 10 minutes. Brush with more sauce and continue to cook until the meat is cooked to the desired doneness and the vegetables are softened and blistered, about 15 minutes more for medium rare.
• Remove the spit from the fire and let rest for 10 minutes. Warm the flatbreads on the grill, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Slide the meat and vegetables off the spit onto a serving platter, drizzle with the reserved sauce and serve with the flatbreads.

KITTY'S YAM AND PEAR KICK BUTT KABOBS

Steps:

• Mix the wine and teriyaki sauce in a 1 gallon resealable plastic bag. Add the yams, zucchini and pears. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to marinate, (longer is better).
• Fire up the grill to medium-high.
• Put the yams, zucchini and pears on flat metal skewers. Grill for 30 to 40 minutes, basting with the marinade as they are cooking. Turn the skewers often until they are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. After they reach this stage I put them in a warm oven to stay hot. (If you have a giant grill, turn a burner down to low and just lay the kabobs there to stay hot, but not to cook any further.) Transfer the skewers to a serving plate and serve.

JIMMY'S HABIBI KABOBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a bowl combine the veal, parsley, bread crumbs, eggs, garlic, gingerroot, coriander, oregano, herbes de Provence, lemon pepper, lemon juice, and salt. With dampened hands, form the mixture into meatballs, each about 2 inches in diameter.
• Arrange 4 meatballs interspersed with vegetables of choice, except tomatoes, on six long skewers and place in a baking pan. Brush kabobs with vegetable oil.
• Bake the kabobs for 20 minutes, or until juices run clear. If desired, add cherry tomatoes and place under a preheated broiler about 3 to 4 inches from the heat for 2 to 3 minutes, turning, until golden brown.
