Time 2h25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 24

1 cup finely chopped scallion
1 scotch bonnet peppers (wear rubber gloves or use plastic sandwich bags to protect your hands from the volatile oils.) or 1 habanero pepper, seeded and minced (wear rubber gloves or use plastic sandwich bags to protect your hands from the volatile oils.)
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons ground allspice
2 tablespoons cilantro, minced
1 garlic clove, minced
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 tablespoon brown sugar
3/4 teaspoon dried thyme, crumbled
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 1/4-1 1/2 lbs fresh ahi tuna, cut into 1 1/2 inch cubes
2 small zucchini, cut into 1/2 inch slices
1 red bell pepper, cut into 1 inch cubes
1 red onion, sliced 1/2 inch thick and quartered
1 fresh pineapple, peeled, cored and cut into 1 inch cubes
2/3 cup pineapple juice
5 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon minced ginger
1/4 scotch bonnet pepper, seeded and finely chopped (optional)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons honey
3 tablespoons chopped cilantro

Steps:

  • Put first 12 ingredients -- scallions through cinnamon -- into a blender and puree.
  • Pour marinade into a plastic bag, then add the tuna.
  • Place bag, sealed well, into the refrigerator for 2 - 6 hours, turning every once in a while to distribute marinade evenly.
  • If using wooden skewers, cover them with water in a shallow dish and let stand for 2 hours.
  • In a pot of boiling water, blanch the bell peppers, zucchini, and onion for 1-2 minutes depending on the size of the slices. Drain and pat dry.
  • Make pineapple glaze by placing pineapple juice, lemon juice, ginger, chili, soy, honey and cilantro in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then turn down to medium low, cooking until mixture is reduced by half. Set aside.
  • Remove tuna from refrigerator and drain off marinade.
  • On metal or wooden skewers alternately thread ingredients: a slice of onion, tuna , pineapple, bell pepper, zucchini, etc. or in any order that pleases you.
  • Heat grill to medium high and cook the kabobs for about 6-8 minutes total, turning once. Use pineapple glaze often to brush on kabobs as cooking and to drizzle any remaining on plates.

I didn't like these kabobs at all. The tuna was overcooked and the pineapple glaze was too sweet.

These kabobs were a bit too salty for my taste.

I found the pineapple glaze to be a bit overpowering. Next time I'll try using less of it.
