Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup soy sauce low sodium
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup olive oil extra virgin
  • 6 oz pineapple juice
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar light
  • 2 teaspoons ginger minced or paste
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 red bell pepper cut into 1" squares
  • 1 green bell pepper cut into 1" squares
  • 14 oz fully cooked ham steaks cut into 1" cubes
  • 1/4 red onion cut into chunks
  • 1 fresh pineapple cut into 1" cubes
  • extra oil for grilling
  • 1 bag tater tots rounds

Instructions
 

  • Start by soaking 8 wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to avoid burning on the grill.
  • In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, mix the pineapple juice, soy sauce, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, ginger, and garlic. Stir frequently until the glaze reduces by half, making it thicker.
  • While the glaze cooks, prepare the peppers, pineapple, and onion by cutting them into 1-inch pieces. Follow the package instructions to cook the tater tots.
  • Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Thread the ham, pineapple, and veggies onto the soaked skewers, alternating pieces. Don't pack them too tightly.
  • To prevent sticking, use tongs to hold a paper towel dipped in oil and rub it across the grill grates.
  • Place the skewers on the hot grill and cook each side for 2 to 3 minutes, until golden and charred. Brush the kabobs with the glaze as they cook, turning them to coat each side.
  • Once grilled to perfection, remove the kabobs and serve them hot with crispy tater tots. Enjoy!
