Ingredients
2/3 cup balsamic vinegar
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup freshly squeezed orange juice , (about 1 medium orange)
3 garlic cloves,, smashed
2 tablespoons olive oil, (extra virgin)
1 green apple, cut into 1 inch chunks
1 red onion, cut into 1-inch chunks
bamboo or metal skewers
1 pinch salt and pepper
Directions
Measure vinegar, brown sugar, orange juice, garlic, olive oil, salt and pepper into a large zip-top bag. Seal and shake to combine.
Cut pork chops into 1 1/2 inch cubes and add to the bag, seal and refrigerate for 1 hour or up to one day.
Soak bamboo skewers in water for 30 minutes.
Remove pork from the marinade, and place the marinade, minus the garlic, in a small saucepan. Heat the marinade to boiling and boil until slightly thickened and reduced by half, about 5-7 minutes. Reserve.
Skewer the pork, along with the apples and onions and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Heat a grill pan (or your broiler) to medium high.
Drizzle pan with a little oil to keep the skewers from sticking.
Place the skewers on the pan and grill for 4 minutes.
Turn them a quarter of the way around and grill another 4 minutes.
Finish grilling the remaining two sides for 4 minutes each, grilling the skewers for a total of 16 minutes. If using your broiler, broil for about 10 minutes total, flipping once.
Do not overcook the pork, or it will become tough.
This is good too!!
