To make these skewers, you'll need the following ingredients:
- 1 pound of ham, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 fresh pineapple, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1/2 cup of brown sugar
- 1/4 cup of honey
- 1/4 cup of soy sauce
- 1/4 cup of pineapple juice
- 1 tablespoon of minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon of grated ginger
- Wooden skewers, soaked in water for at least 30 minutes
To serve 4 people, you'll need to use approximately 8 skewers. Begin by threading the ham and pineapple pieces onto the skewers, alternating between the two. Set aside.
In a small saucepan, combine the brown sugar, honey, soy sauce, pineapple juice, garlic, and ginger. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 5-7 minutes, until the sauce has thickened.
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Brush the skewers with the glaze, making sure to coat them evenly. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, until the ham is heated through and the pineapple is slightly caramelized.
Remove the skewers from the grill and brush them with any remaining glaze. Serve immediately and enjoy!
These Glazed Ham and Pineapple Skewers are the perfect combination of sweet and savory, with the juicy pineapple perfectly complementing the salty ham. The glaze adds a delicious depth of flavor, making these skewers a crowd-pleasing appetizer that's sure to impress.
