Ingredients
- 500 grams sliced ham
- 1 1/2 cups fresh pineapple chunks
- 1 sweet bell pepper, cut into 1” chunks
- 1/2 cup barbecue sauce
Instructions
- Prepare Skewers: Weave the ham strips onto skewers, alternating with pineapple chunks and bell pepper pieces to create colorful, balanced skewers.
- Serve Cold or Cook: You can eat the skewers cold straight away or brush them generously with barbecue sauce.
- Grill the Skewers: Place the sauced skewers on a grill and cook for 5-10 minutes until the sauce is slightly caramelized and the ingredients are heated through, turning occasionally for even cooking.
- Alternatively Bake: If preferred, you can bake the skewers in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 10 minutes or until hot and caramelized to your liking.
Notes
- Make sure the skewers are soaked in water for at least 30 minutes if using wooden skewers to prevent burning during grilling or baking.
- Feel free to customize the vegetables with other bell pepper colors or add onions for extra flavor.
- Adjust the amount of barbecue sauce according to your taste preferences.
- These skewers work well as appetizers or as part of a main meal with sides like rice or salad.
