1/4 can pineapple chunks

1/2 bottle sweet & sour sauce

4. Grill or broil until all sides are lightly caramelized
5. Serve with additional sauce, if desired.

Freezing Directions:

2. Place kabobs in freezer bag(s)
3. Pour sweet and sour sauce over all and gently shake to coat. Seal, label, and freeze
4. To serve: thaw in fridge. Remove from sauce and cook as indicated above.
