Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lbs turkey tenderloin (cut into approximately 1 inch pieces)
  • 2 tsp Caribbean Jerk seasoning blend
  • 1/2 lime, juiced
  • 1/2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp lower sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 2 cups pineapple, chopped into 1 inch pieces
  • 2 cups mango, chopped into 1 inch pieces
  • 1 large red bell pepper, chopped into 1 inch pieces

Instructions

  • Place turkey which has been cut into approximately 1 inch pieces in a bowl. Toss with jerk seasoning, lime juice, honey, soy sauce and olive oil. Place in the fridge for approximately 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, chop pineapple, mango and bell pepper, and prepare grill.
  • Remove turkey from fridge. Alternate placing turkey on skewers with pineapple, mango, and bell pepper. {Note – I use metal reusable skewers, but if you use wood ones be sure to soak them ahead of time.}
  • Grill kabobs for approximately 5 minutes, then turn over and continue grilling for another 4-8 minutes* or until turkey is cooked thoroughly to an internal temperature of 165 F.

Notes

Notes:
The specific cooking time will vary based on your grill type and heat.  I recommend checking a few minutes after turning.  The best way to assess if they're done is to check the temperature and ensure a minimum temp of 165 degrees.
