• Ready In: 1 hr
• Serves: 4
• Yields: 4 kabobs

Ingredients

• 1⁄2 cup  apricot jam
• 2  tablespoons cider vinegar
• 1  tablespoon tomato paste
• 2  tablespoons olive oil, plus more for grill
•  coarse  salt and pepper
• 1 1⁄2 lbs  pork tenderloin, halved lengthwise and cut into 16 cubes (about 1 1/2 inches each)
• 1  medium red onion, cut into 8 wedges
• 1  granny smith apple, peeled and cut into 8 wedges

Directions

1. 1. Heat grill to medium-high. Make the sauce: In a large bowl, combine jam, vinegar, tomato paste, and 1 tablespoon oil. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
2. 2. Assemble 4 long skewers, alternating 4 pork cubes with 2 onion wedges and 2 apple wedges on each (begin with pork and end with apple). Roll skewers in remaining tablespoon oil. Season with salt and pepper.
3. 3. Lightly oil grates. Place skewers on grill; cover grill, and cook, turning occasionally, until grill marks are visible, 6 to 8 minutes.
4. 4. Open grill; baste skewers with some sauce, and cook, turning skewers and basting occasionally with more sauce, until pork is no longer pink in the center and is nicely glazed, 4 to 8 minutes more.
