Sweet And Sour Pork Kabobs Recipes

Steps:

• In a large resealable bag, combine 1/4 cup of the apricot preserves, the tamari, chili paste and sesame oil. Add the diced chicken and toss to combine. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or up to overnight.
• Preheat a grill pan over medium heat. Thread each skewer in the following order: pepper, chicken, pineapple, chicken, pepper, chicken, pineapple. Repeat until all the chicken is used; reserve the marinade in the bag.
• Drizzle the skewers with the olive oil and place them in the hot grill pan. Cook, rotating often, until the chicken is cooked through and edges of the pineapple are golden brown, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place the reserved marinade and the remaining 2 tablespoons apricot preserves in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Baste the skewers with this mixture 2 or 3 times during cooking.

Steps:

• Drain pineapple, reserving juice; set aside. In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch, brown sugar, salt, ginger and pepper. Stir in the water, ketchup, vinegar, soy sauce and reserved juice until smooth., In a large skillet or wok, stir-fry pork and onion in oil for 4-8 minutes or until tender. Stir pineapple juice mixture; add to skillet. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened., Add green pepper and reserved pineapple. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 5 minutes. Serve with rice and if desired, sesame seeds.

Steps:

• Blend cornstarch and soy sauce in small bowl; stir in pork until well coated.
• Brown pork in hot oil in Dutch oven or large skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in 1/4 cup water. Cover and simmer 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Stir carrots, onion, bell pepper and sweet & sour sauce into pork mixture. Simmer, covered, 10 minutes longer, stirring frequently.
• Add pineapple chunks; cook and stir only until pineapple is heated through.

Steps:

• Mix the pork with the marinade ingredients and leave to sit for at least 15 mins, or chill for a few hours. In a separate bowl, mix all the coating ingredients. Drain any excess liquid off the pork and toss the pork in the seasoned coating. Can be done 1 hr ahead.
• To make the sauce, heat the oil in a shallow saucepan and gently fry the garlic, ginger and peppers until just starting to soften. Now drop in all the rest of the ingredients except the sesame seeds. Bring everything to the boil and cook for a few mins until thickened, then take off the heat. To make the batter, whisk the flours and baking powder together with 200ml water to a smooth paste.
• Heat the oil in a deep-fat fryer, large saucepan or a wok to 180C or until a drop of batter sizzles and browns in 20 secs. Dip the marinated pork in the batter mix (do it in two or three batches) and let any excess drip off. Fry the pork in batches for about 5-6 mins or until golden. Remove and drain on kitchen paper until all the batches are done. Make sure you bring the oil back to the correct temperature between each batch. Coat the crispy pork in the sauce, then sprinkle over the sesame seeds, coriander and serve with rice or noodles.

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.

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.

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.

Steps:

• In a large bowl whisk together the balsamic vinegar, garlic, chili flakes and canola oil-add pork chunks, toss well, and if you have a freezer bag pour into that-remove as much of the air as you like and place in the fridge overnight-turnning a few times.
• At this point you can also freeze for later use.
• If using wooden skewers pre-soak 1 hour before using, and you will need 14.
• In a large bowl whisk together the ketchup, vinegar, brown sugar, soy, ginger, salt and sesame oil.
• Preheat your grill to medium high.
• Skewer the pork, pineapple, tomatoes and peppers, repeat until all skewers are done.
• brush skewers with the ketchup/soy sauce and place kebabs on grill, basting often and turning twice.
• Test one for pork doneness.

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.
• While the pork is marinating, soak skewers in water for about 20 minutes prior to using them. That will help the skewers to not burn up when exposed to the flame.
• Preheat an outdoor grill or indoor grill pan to medium-high heat and lightly grease the grates with a small amount of vegetable oil.
• Thread the skewers with marinated pork, pineapple, and red pepper, alternating back and forth; discard the marinade.
• Cook skewers on the preheated grill until they obtain grill marks and the pork is no longer pink, about 2 minutes per side. Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.

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.)
