Anguillan Kebabs Recipes

BEEF AND PINEAPPLE KEBABS (ANGUILLA)

Steps:

• Cube the beef into 1-inch chunks.
• Combine the molasses, pineapple juice and vinegar and marinade the beef chunks in the mixture for about an hour.
• Cut up the pineapple into equal sized chunks (you could also use canned chunk pineapple) and thread onto skewers with the beef.
• Drizzle the remaining marinade over the skewers and grill over a hot flame or cook under your broiler.

SALMON KEBABS WITH HERB SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to 375 degrees F.
• Add the olive oil, Italian seasoning, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper to a large bowl and whisk to combine. Add the salmon, red onion, and lemon quarters to the bowl and gently toss to coat.
• To assemble the kebabs, thread a few pieces of red onion onto an 8-inch-long metal skewer (see Cook's Note). Next, add a piece of salmon, followed by a quarter of lemon. Continue threading the ingredients onto the skewer until you have 4 pieces of salmon on the skewer. Set the finished kebab aside and continue the process with the remaining skewers and ingredients.
• Generously oil the grates of the preheated grill. Add the salmon kebabs to the grill and cook, turning halfway through, until nice grill marks have formed, and the salmon easily releases from the grill, 4 to 6 minutes. (This can alternatively be done on an indoor grill pan.)
• Remove the salmon to a serving platter and drizzle with the Herb Sauce. Serve with lemon wedges.
• Add the olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt to a small food processor fitted with the blade attachment. Pulse until the garlic is finely chopped. Add the basil and parsley leaves and blend until finely chopped. Transfer the herb sauce to a bowl to serve with the grilled salmon.

KOREAN KEBABS

Steps:

• Mix oil, soy sauce, and peanut butter together in a bowl until blended and creamy. Stir in spring onion, sesame seeds, garlic, red chile powder, salt, and pepper. Add pork to marinade; turn to coat.
• Marinate pork in the refrigerator for 2 to 4 hours.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Thread pork, onion, mushrooms, red bell pepper, and zucchini onto skewers. Transfer to the baking sheet. Pour marinade on top.
• Bake in the preheated oven until pork is tender and browned, about 30 minutes.

ANGUILLAN BARBECUE SAUCE

Steps:

• 1. Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, and chile and sauté until just beginning to brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes and cook until most of the liquid has evaporated, 5 to 7 minutes.2. Stir in the tomato paste, barbecue sauce, hot sauce, 1/4 cup each vinegar and sugar, the rum, 1/4 cup water, the oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper and bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, uncovered, until thick and richly flavored, 20 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.3. Remove from the heat and taste for seasoning, adding salt, vinegar, or sugar as necessary the sauce should be highly seasoned. Add water if the sauce seems too thick.4. Any unused sauce may be stored, covered, in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 weeks.Makes 3 to 4 cups

INDIAN STYLE SHEEKH KABAB

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix ground lamb, onions, mint, cilantro, ginger paste, and chile paste. Season with cumin, coriander, paprika, cayenne, and salt. Cover, and refrigerate for 2 hours.
• Mold handfuls of the lamb mixture, about 1 cup, to form sausages around skewers. Make sure the meat is spread to an even thickness. Refrigerate until you are ready to grill.
• Preheat grill for high heat.
• Brush grate liberally with oil, and arrange kabobs on grill. Cook for 10 minutes, or until well done, turning as needed to brown evenly.

ANGUILLAN KEBABS

Steps:

• Place the beef on a cutting board and cut into large bite-size cubes.
• In a large bowl mix the vinegar, pineapple juice, molasses, pepper and salt.
• Put the beef in the mixture and coat well.
• For about 1 hour or more marinate the beef cubes at room temperature turning occasionally.
• Preheat the broiler/grill. Add the meat cubes on the skewers and pack them tightly. Use the marinade to baste the meat.
• Broil or grill the meat until they are done. If you are planning to use traditional broiler, cook for about 9 to 10 minutes -- cook time is roughly the same on the grill!
