Pork Kebabs With Sesame Rice Recipes

SUNNY'S PORK KEBABS AND BAKED PINEAPPLE RICE

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.

BARBECUED PORK KEBABS

SESAME PORK KABOBS

PLUM PORK KABOBS WITH MUSHROOMS, ONIONS OVER SCALLION RICE

Steps:

• Pork, Mushrooms and Onions -- Bring to room temp, or let it rest to take the chill off and cut into 1 1/2" cubes. Clean the mushrooms and peel the onions. You can leave them whole if small enough or you can cut them in half - either way. Toss into a large bowl with the olive oil, salt and pepper and coat well.
• Skewer -- Don't forget to soak your bamboo skewers in water for about 20-30 minutes so they do not burn, or you can also use metal skewers. I use 3-4 pieces of pork; 2-3 mushrooms and a couple of onions per skewer. Should make around 8-12 skewers, depending on the size of the skewer you are using.
• Sauce -- In a small bowl, microwave the sesame oil and plum sauce just for a few seconds to warm up which makes it easier to brush on.
• Rice -- Just cook in chicken broth if possible according to package directions, water will work just fine, but broth adds a little more flavor. Once done, toss in the sesame oil, scallions and cilantro.
• Grill -- Outside or inside, medium high heat, grill the skewers. I continually brush on some of the sauce as I grill the kabobs to make sure they are covered well. They take around 10-15 minutes until done, but the pork is still pink.
• Serve -- Serve 1-2 skewers per person over the rice and enjoy! It is a very simple, quick dinner with great flavor.
