Instructions
  1. Preheat gas grill to medium-high or about 350 degrees.
  2. Prepare skewers by alternating fruit on each one.
  3. Mix ingredients for glaze in medium to large bowl. Add cubed fruit and gently toss. Use a brush as needed so glaze is spread on all fruit pieces.
  4. Lightly oil the grate on the grill or use grilling spray oil. This will ensure the skewers won’t stick!
  5. Cook skewers on grill over direct heat for about 1.5 minutes each side until lightly browned and caramelized.
  6. Serve warm!
Recipe Notes

Pineapple, peaches, kiwi, strawberries, and bananas work well.

Grilled Cherry Tomato & Basil On A Stick

The best part of skewer meals is that there are no rules!  Any protein, fruit or vegetable can be “cooked on a stick”, and whether it’s an appetizer, meal or dessert, you can please all family members with their favorite foods!  You can use stainless steel or bamboo skewers for best results, just be sure to soak the bamboo ones in water for about 10-15 minutes first.

Instructions
  1. Preheat gas grill to medium-high or about 350 degrees. Light only one half of the grill in order to create a “cool zone” on one side.
  2. Prepare skewers by threading 5 cherry tomatoes with a folded fresh basil leaf between each one. Brush each skewer with olive oil.
  3. Lightly oil the grate on the grill or use grilling spray oil. This will ensure the skewers won’t stick!
  4. Place skewers directly over heat for 30 seconds on each side. You should see grill marks on the tomatoes.
  5. Remove from direct heat and place skewers in the “cool zone” for additional 1 to 2 minutes until hot.
  6. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste and let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Recipe Notes

This same dish can be done in the oven without skewers.  Place cherry tomatoes brushed with olive oil in a baking dish.  Sprinkle with sea salt and chopped fresh or dried basil.  Cook on middle rack at 350 until tomatoes are hot but skin is not blistered or broken.
