Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) soy sauce, low sodium preferred
- 2 tablespoons (30 ml) lime juice, freshly squeezed
- 2 tablespoons (30 ml) honey
- 1 tablespoon (15 ml) olive oil
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon (1.25 ml) red pepper flakes (optional)
- 1 large pineapple, peeled, cored, and cut into 1-inch chunks
- 1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 red onion, cut into 1-inch wedges
- 1 zucchini, cut into 1/2-inch thick rounds
- 1 pint (560 grams) cherry tomatoes
- 16 wooden or metal skewers
Instructions:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, lime juice, honey, olive oil, garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes (if using) until well combined.
- Thread pineapple chunks and vegetables onto skewers, alternating ingredients for a colourful and balanced presentation.
- Place the skewers in a shallow dish or resealable bag. Pour the glaze over the skewers, ensuring they are evenly coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours).
- Preheat grill to medium heat (about 350-400°F or 175-200°C). Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
- Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally and basting with the remaining glaze, until the vegetables are tender-crisp and the pineapple is lightly caramelized.
- Remove the skewers from the grill and serve immediately.
