Categories     Pork     Marinate     Low Cal     Pineapple     Grill     Chill     Grill/Barbecue     Gourmet

Yield Serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar
1 garlic clove, minced and mashed to a paste with 1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon dried hot red pepper flakes
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 1/2 pounds boneless trimmed pork shoulder or pork loin, cut into forty 1-inch pieces
1/4 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons distilled vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon Oriental sesame oil
a 4-pound pineapple, peeled, cored, and cut into thirty 3/4-inch-thick wedges
ten 10-inch wooden skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes

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.)

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 cup pineapple juice
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon gochujang (Korean chili paste)
1 clove garlic, grated on a rasp grater or finely minced
1 1/2 pounds pork tenderloin, cut into 1-inch cubes
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
Sunny's Baked Pineapple Rice, recipe follows, for serving
1 cup jasmine rice, rinsed
4 pineapple rings, cut into chunks
1/2 cup coconut milk
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly cracked black pepper
1/4 cup toasted almond slivers
2 scallions, white and green parts, finely chopped

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the pineapple juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, ginger, vegetable oil, gochujang and garlic. Pour into a large resealable plastic bag and add the pork, moving the bag around to ensure the marinade coats all of the pork. Seal the bag and refrigerate for 1 1/2 hours.
  • After 1 1/2 hours, remove the bag with the meat from the refrigerator and let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes. If using wooden skewers, soak in water at this point.
  • Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
  • Remove the pork from the marinade and discard the marinade. Thread 5 to 6 pork cubes on each skewer. Season the pork on all sides with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Grill and flip to cook on all sides until cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Serve immediately with Sunny's Baked Pineapple Rice (or cover with aluminum foil until serving).
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Put the rice and pineapple in an 8-by-8-inch baking dish. In a medium pot on high heat, add the coconut milk, butter, salt, some black pepper and 1 cup water. Cook until the butter melts and the mixture is just below simmering. Pour over the rice and immediately cover tightly with aluminum foil. Bake until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed, 35 to 40 minutes.
  • Add the almonds and scallions, fluff with a fork and serve warm.

POLYNESIAN TOFU SKEWERS WITH PINEAPPLE (VEG*N KEBABS)



Polynesian Tofu Skewers With Pineapple (Veg*n Kebabs) image

Light and fairly quick recipe for the grill, although you do have to factor in some marinating time. The version I came across originally called for seitan chunks, (found on http://www.wailana.com). Prep time doesn't include marinating.

Provided by magpie diner

Categories     Soy/Tofu

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (350 g) package firm tofu, cut into large cubes (not silken)
2 cups pineapple chunks (fresh best)
1 green bell pepper, cubed (about same size as tofu)
bamboo skewer
1/2 cup tomato sauce
1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
6 tablespoons brown sugar (try 4 or 5 first, adjust to taste)
1/2 cup pineapple juice (fresh or canned)
2 fresh garlic cloves, minced (or use garlic powder)

Steps:

  • Gently press out as much water from your tofu as possible. I do this by placing the block of tofu in a towel and leaving a weight on top to press down on it for about 10 minutes (can of beans on a plate works well). Pat dry.
  • Mix the marinade ingredients together in a medium saucepan. Bring to a gentle boil and stir well - the sugar should be dissolved. Simmer for about 10 minutes, you want the sauce to be quite thick, but if it's too thick you can add a bit of water. Set aside to cool.
  • Assemble the kebabs, alternating pieces of seitan, pineapple, and bell pepper on the skewers, leaving space at the base for holding the skewer. You should be able to fill 6 skewers.
  • Pour the cooled marinade over the skewers, rolling around or using a brush to coat every piece. Leave to marinade for about an hour, or better even longer if you have the time. Great if you can do this prep the day before.
  • Grilling - remove the skewers from the marinade and place them a preheated barbecue grill. Leave about 3 minutes per side so you get nice grill marks and the veg are nicely browned. Baste as you go with some of the leftover sauce. You could also prepare under the broiler.
  • Heat up any remaining sauce and serve alongside the skewers.
