Grilled Plum And Pork Kebabs Food

GRILLED PORK SHISH KABOBS

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl (or ziploc bag), combine chopped pork, 1 Tbsp Italian seasoning, 1 1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp black pepper and stir until well combined. Separate onion pieces and add them to the bowl. Add 2 Tbsp olive oil and toss to combine. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours and preferably overnight.
• Thread the kabobs onto metal skewers*, alternating between meat and onion. For even browning, the meat and onions should be just touching on the skewers and not crowded together. Let your skewers stay at room temperature for 30 minutes before placing on the grill.
• Preheat your grill to Medium/high heat (400˚F). Add skewers in a single layer and grill for 8-10 minutes total. Meat skewers turn like a triangle so we cook about 3 minutes per side on all 3 sides. Grill until cooked through and meat reaches at least 145˚F internal temperature. Rest skewers 3 minutes before serving.

PLUM-GLAZED PORK KABOBS

Steps:

• For glaze, in a small bowl, mix jam, soy sauce, garlic and ginger. Cut vegetables and pork into 1-in. pieces. On six metal or soaked wooden skewers, alternately thread pork and vegetables., On a lightly greased grill rack, grill kabobs, covered, over medium heat 12-15 minutes or until pork is tender, turning occasionally and brushing with 1/4 cup glaze during the last 5 minutes. Brush with remaining glaze before serving.

GRILLED PORK CHOPS AND PLUMS

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Sprinkle the pork chops generously on both sides with salt and pepper. Lightly oil the grill grates. Grill the pork chops until lightly charred with strong grill marks, about 6 minutes. Flip and continue to grill until just slightly pink near the bone, 4 to 5 minutes more. Transfer the pork chops to a cutting board to rest for about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, toss the plums with 2 teaspoons of the oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill, flipping once, until softened with grill marks, about 2 minutes per side. Cut into wedges.
• Toss the arugula and parsley with the lemon juice and remaining 1 tablespoon oil and season with salt and pepper. Divide among 4 plates and top with the plum wedges. Serve with the pork chops.
