Grilled Summer Fruit Kabobs Food

GRILLED FRUIT KABOBS

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and place a large sheet of foil onto the grate.
• Melt the margarine and honey together in a small saucepan over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Do not let the sauce boil.
• Thread a peach quarter, a plum quarter, a banana piece, and a strawberry onto each skewer. Place the skewers onto the foil on the preheated grill; spoon margarine-honey mixture over each skewer.
• Grill until the fruit is softened and the sauce has thickened and cooked onto the fruit, about 5 minutes. Flip the skewers, spoon more margarine-honey sauce over each, and grill for about 5 more minutes on the other side.

GRILLED FRUIT AND VEGETABLE KABOBS

Steps:

• Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat.

• Drizzle the grill pan with olive oil and grill the kabobs until all sides have char marks, 3 minutes on each side, 12 minutes total.
• For the honey-lime vinaigrette: Add the olive oil, honey, cumin, lime juice and cilantro to a small bowl and mix until combined. Drizzle the vinaigrette over the grilled kabobs.
