Instructions:

  1. Prepare Ingredients:

    • Cut the boneless pork loin, pineapple, and red bell peppers into 1-inch cubes or pieces.
    • In a bowl, whisk together the guava jelly, lime juice, grated ginger, and chopped cilantro. Set aside.
  2. Cook Bacon:

    • Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until it’s cooked through but not overly crispy. This should take about 4-5 minutes per side. Once cooked, cut the bacon into 1-inch slices.
  3. Assemble Kebabs:

    • Thread the bacon slices, pork cubes, pineapple chunks, and red bell pepper pieces onto skewers, alternating the ingredients for a colorful presentation.
  4. Grill the Kebabs:

    • Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
    • Place the assembled kebabs on the grill and cook for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, or until the pork is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
    • While grilling, baste the kebabs with the guava jelly mixture, using a brush, to infuse them with extra flavor and moisture.
  5. Serve and Enjoy:

    • Once cooked, remove the kebabs from the grill and transfer them to a serving platter.
    • Garnish with additional chopped cilantro, if desired, and serve hot alongside your favorite sides like rice, couscous, or a fresh salad.

These Guava-Glazed Pork Kebabs are a delightful combination of sweet, savory, and tangy flavors, making them a crowd-pleasing dish for any occasion. Enjoy them at your next gathering and watch them disappear in no time!
