A few questions you might have
What should I prepare first?
Set out the grill. Start with this step: If using wooden skewers, it's a good idea to soak them for 30 minutes to reduce burning/splintering.
Which preparation step should I plan for?
Use the grill setup and heat described in the method.
What check should I look for as it cooks?
Reduce heat to medium-high, and grill the skewers for about 4-5 minutes/side (or until they're cooked through), with the BBQ lid down.
How do I plan the ingredient amounts?
This version serves 4. Use the ingredient amounts listed for that yield. If you change the number of portions, check equipment and the full method as well as the shopping quantities.
Additional recipe notes
Keep in mind any BBQ/grill/grill pan is different, so actual cooking time may vary. I had a bit of pineapple left after making 6 large skewers. Serves 4 as long as you serve these skewers with a side (e.g. rice, salad, etc.) Nutritional information is provided as a courtesy only and should be construed as an estimate rather than a guarantee. Ingredients can vary and Salt & Lavender makes no guarantees to the accuracy of this information.
Storage & reheating safety
For cooked, perishable leftovers, refrigerate within 2 hours (1 hour above 90°F), using shallow containers for prompt cooling. Keep the refrigerator at 40°F or below, use refrigerated leftovers within 3–4 days, and reheat hot leftovers to 165°F, checked with a food thermometer. Follow any shorter package limit.
These are general safety limits, not a tested storage or freezing recommendation for this particular dish. USDA leftovers guidance · Safe cooking temperatures
