Sweet And Sour Pork Kababs Food

SWEET & SOUR PORK

Steps:

• Mix rice vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, ketchup and apple cider vinegar in a medium mixing bowl and stir together until well combined. Place pork chop pieces in marinade, cover and let it marinate in the fridge for 1-2 hours. I make it in the morning and let the pork sit in a Ziplock bag with the marinade until dinner.
• Remove the pork chops from the fridge, and one piece at a time, place them on the skewers.
• After adding one piece of pork, add 2 pieces of purple onion, and 1-2 red pepper pieces, add another piece of pork and repeat process until skewer is full. You can even place two pieces of pork together - you get to decide.
• Set kabob on a plate and repeat with the remaining pork, onions, and peppers. Keep the remaining marinade for basting the pork on the grill while it is cooking.
• Heat gas or charcoal grill. Place pork on grill over medium heat. Cover grill and cook 3 minutes, then turn over the kabob, baste with remaining marinade and cook another 3 minutes.
• At this point check the pork with your digital thermometer. To know if the pork is done, the juices should be clear and the center of thickest part is cut (145°F).If not done, continue to cook. At this point, I leave the lid open and just turn the kabobs so they are cooked evenly on both sides.

MAKE-IT-MINE PORK KABOBS

Steps:

• In a self-sealing plastic bag combine cubed pork, soy sauce, vinegar, ginger and Dijon-style mustard (or Chinese Five Spice); seal bag and refrigerate for 1 to 4 hours.
• Prepare medium-hot fire with charcoal or preheat gas to medium high.
• Remove pork from marinade, and discard marinade. Thread pork, sweet peppers, mushrooms, and zucchini alternately onto 8 skewers. Grill kabobs directly over fire, turning to brown evenly, for 5 minutes. Brush kabobs with the melted jelly. Continue to grill for 3 to 10 minutes more or until tender. Let rest 3 minutes before serving.

SWEET AND SOUR CHICKEN SKEWERS

Steps:

• Put the vinegar, sugar, reserved pineapple juice and cornstarch slurry into a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce heat and simmer until the sauce thickens, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside. Reserve half of the sauce in a small serving bowl to be used as a dipping sauce alongside the skewers.
• Quarter the red pepper and remove the core and seeds. Slice each quarter into 6 pieces. Cut each chicken thigh into 6 pieces.
• Preheat a grill pan or an outdoor grill to medium heat.
• On each of the 8 skewers, place 1 chunk of pineapple, then a piece of chicken thigh, followed by a piece of red pepper. Repeat with another piece of pineapple then chicken, then red pepper. Season skewers with salt and pepper, to taste. Grill the skewers on oiled grill, cooking for 4 minutes on each side. Brush the sweet and sour sauce all over the skewers and grill and additional 2 minutes per side. Remove to a serving dish and serve with the reserved sweet and sour sauce, for dipping.

SWEET AND SOUR PORK KABOBS WITH FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Kabobs:
• In a small bowl, mix first 5 ingredients together to make a marinade. Set marinade aside. In a medium bowl, place vegetables and pineapple. Place pork in a different medium bowl. Distribute marinade evenly between the 2 bowls and toss pork to coat. Refrigerate at least 15 minutes, or up to 8 hours.
• Preheat the broiler.
• Thread the pork, vegetables, and pineapple alternately on 4 skewers. Place skewers in a broiling pan and broil until pork is cooked through and beginning to brown, turning skewers halfway through cooking, about 5 minutes per side.
• Fried Rice:
• Open fried rice package and reserve seasonings. Combine rice and butter in a heavy large skillet and saute over medium heat until rice is golden brown, about 2 minutes. Gradually add 2 cups water, soy sauce, and seasonings from fried rice package. Bring to a boil. Cover skillet and reduce heat to low. Simmer until rice is tender, about 15 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and sprinkle pineapple, peas, carrots, and corn over rice mixture. Cover and let stand for 5 minutes. Fluff rice with a fork and mix in pineapple, peas, carrots, and corn.

SWEET AND SOUR PORK KABABS

Steps:

• Begin by soaking your bambo skewers in water for around 20 minutes to help prevent burning on the bbq.
• To make the sweet and sour sauce, combien the pineapple juice, vinegar,brown sugar, ketchup, soy sauce, water, and cornstarch in a medium saucepan and whisk together. Heat over a medium-high heat, stiring. Bring to a boil and let boil 1 minute. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• To make the skewers, thread the pepper, onion, pineapple, and pork pieces on the soaked skewers.
• Preheat the bbq to 400 degrees, and then cook the pork kebabs, turning every 3-4 minutes, until the pork is fully cooked. With each turn, base the kebabs with the sweet and sour sauce, until it is all used up. Seve with rice and enoy.

PORK AND PINEAPPLE KEBABS WITH SWEET-AND-SOUR SAUCE

Steps:

• In a large bowl whisk together the red-wine vinegar, the garlic paste, and the red pepper flakes, add the vegetable oil in a stream, whisking, and whisk the marinade until it is emulsified. Add the pork, stirring to coat it with the marinade, and let it marinate, covered and chilled, for at least 6 hours or overnight.
• In a bowl whisk together the ketchup, the distilled vinegar, the sugar, the soy sauce, the salt, and the sesame oil until the sugar is dissolved and reserve the sauce.
• Drain the pork, reserving the marinade, and thread it and the pineapple, alternating them, onto the skewers, using 4 pieces of pork and 3 pieces of pineapple on each skewer. Brush the kebabs with some of the reserved marinade and grill them on a rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals, basting them for the first 10 minutes with the reserved marinade and turning them, for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the pork is just cooked through but still juicy. Brush the kebabs with the reserved sweet-and sour sauce and grill them, turning them, for 2 minutes more. (Discard any remaining marinade; do not serve it as an accompaniment.)
