Cooking Steps

Cook rice
1
  • Before starting, soak skewers in warm water for 5 min.
  • Lightly oil the grill. While you prep, preheat the grill to medium (approx. 400°F).
  • Wash and dry all produce.
  • To a medium pot, add 1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 cups) water and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt. Cover and bring to a boil over high.
  • Using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
  • To the boiling water, stir in rice and reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for 13-15 min, until rice is tender and water is absorbed. Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
Prep
2
  • Meanwhile, zest, then juice half the lime. Cut remaining lime into wedges.
  • Peel, then finely chop shallot.
  • Roughly chop cilantro.
  • Cut tomato into 1/4-inch pieces.
Make salsa and finish prep
3
  • To a medium bowl, add tomato, lime juice, half the cilantro, a quarter of the shallots and 1 tsp (2 tsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine.
  • Peel, pit, then cut avocado into 1/4-inch slices. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Drain pineapples, reserving juice. 
Assemble skewers
4
  • To a large bowl, add turkey, breadcrumbs, Smoked-Paprika Garlic Blend and remaining shallots. Season with salt and pepper, then combine.
  • Roll turkey mixture into 8 (16) 2-inch logs.
  • Alternating pineapple pieces and turkey patties, skewer 4 pieces of pineapple, followed by one turkey patty. Repeat so every skewer has 8 pieces of pineapple and 2 patties total.
  • Brush 1 tsp (2 tsp) oil over turkey and pineapple before grilling to prevent sticking.
