Bacon Wrapped Pork Kebabs Food

BACON WRAPPED PORK MEDALLIONS

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place the bacon in a large, oven-safe skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until lightly browned and still flexible, 6 to 7 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate. Remove any excess bacon grease from the skillet. Combine garlic powder, seasoning salt, basil, and oregano in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Wrap the pork tenderloin with the bacon strips securing with 1 or 2 toothpicks per strip of bacon. Slice the tenderloin between each bacon strip to create the medallions. Dip both sides of the medallions in seasoning mix. Melt butter and oil together in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Cook each medallion for 4 minutes on each side.
• Place skillet into the preheated oven and bake until the pork is no longer pink in the center, 17 to 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

BACON WRAPPED PORK SKEWERS

Steps:

• Rinse the pork, pat dry and wrap with bacon. Arrange 3 bacon-wrapped pork slices on 4 skewers and brush with a little oil.
• Rinse the herbs, shake dry and chop the leaves finely. Season the skewers with salt and pepper and sprinkle with herbs. Broil for about 5 minutes.

BACON WRAPPED MUSHROOM KABOBS / KEBABS

• Cut bacon strips in half--they'll be just long enough to wrap around the mushroom one time.
• Wrap each mushroom with a bacon strip and thread on skewer.
• Grill on medium heat till bacon is done, basting with barbecue sauce.
• This usually takes around 10-15 minutes.
• Serve immediately.

BACON WRAPPED CHICKEN KABOBS

Steps:

• You want to start out by soaking you wooden skewers in water for at least 25 minutes so they do not burn.
• Chop up all your veggies into the desired size.
• chop your chicken into chunks.
• You dont want them too big otherwise your bacon and veggies might burn waiting for it to cook.
• Cut your bacon in half.
• Start poking a piece of veggie onto the skewer.
• When you want to put a piece of chicken on, grab one pice of the bacon that was cut in half and wrap it around the chunk of chicken so the ends are at the same area.
• Poke the skewer where the ends of the bacon meets.
• Just start alternating all the veggies and chicken, and if you are using it steak, alternate the steak and chicken.
• Put them on the grill on a low setting so as to not burn the bacon, and season with spices you prefer.
• Cook until the juices run clear in the chicken.
• Eat and enjoy!

BACON-WRAPPED PORK KEBABS

Steps:

• For the brine: Combine salt, sugar, bay leaves, thyme, and garlic in a pot with 2 cups water. Bring to a boil and once everything has dissolved remove from heat. Add ice cubes to cool down and set aside.
• For the pork: Place the pork cubes in the cooled brine and set in the fridge for 45 minutes. Meanwhile, cut the bacon into six 1/2-inch-thick slices, about 2 1/2-ounces each. Set a large pot of cold water over high heat and add the bacon slices. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 5 minutes.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the Italian seasoning, granulated garlic, paprika, salt and pepper. Drain pork from brine and pat dry with paper towels. Working with one skewer at a time, thread the bacon at one end followed by a piece of pork. Loop the bacon over the pork so it forms an "S" shape around the pork and continue to thread the bacon and pork together so each skewer has 4 pieces of pork and one thick strip of bacon on it. Sprinkle all with the seasoning mixture.
• Heat a grill to medium and wipe down grates with oil. Place pork kebabs across grill and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each of four sides until bacon is crisped around edges and pork is a tender medium. Once the pieces have been seared, glaze the kebabs with the Orange Honey Mustard.
• Heat the oil in a small saute pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add the shallots and saute until softened. Add the orange juice, honey and mustard, whisking to thoroughly combine. Bring to a simmer and reduce for 8 to 10 minutes. Stir well, remove from heat, and keep warm until ready to use.
