Time 1h20m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 pound pork tenderloin, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
½ cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 teaspoon Sriracha sauce
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon minced garlic
10 bamboo skewers
2 teaspoons vegetable oil, or as needed
3 cups cubed fresh pineapple
2 red bell peppers, cut into cubes
3 green onions, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Combine pork, soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, sesame oil, lime juice, Sriracha, ginger, and garlic in a large resealable bag. Seal and shake up to combine well. Refrigerate for 1 hour, turning occasionally.

  • Thread the skewers with marinated pork, pineapple, and red pepper, alternating back and forth; discard the marinade.

CHICKEN SHISH KABOB WITH PINEAPPLE SAUCE



Chicken Shish Kabob With Pineapple Sauce image

This is one of our family's favorite recipes. It can be used with chicken or pork. The marinade is a must--the longer the better! We prefer it with red, orange, or yellow bell peppers, but the original recipe calls for green bell peppers. The sauce is especially tasty too! It's similar to a sweet and sour sauce.
