Here's what
you need:
Soak wooden skewers in water for at least one hour to prevent them from burning on the grill. To prepare the glaze, combine the pineapple juice, orange juice and vinegar in a saucepan over high heat. Bring the mixture to a boil Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until the mixture is reduced to ¾ cup, about 25 minutes. Pour ½ cup of the mixture into a small bowl and set aside to cool for 30 minutes. Once cool, add the lime juice and mint and stir to blend and set aside for presentation. The remaining ¼ cup of the glaze will be used to brush on the fruit while grilling. To prepare the fruit, use a melon baller and scoop out enough melon balls from the honeydew and cantaloupe melons to measure 4 cups total. Or cut the melons into 2x1 inch pieces. Thread soaked wooden skewers with the fruit, alternating types. Grill over lightly oiled grill over a medium hot fire. Grill until golden brown and slightly charred, brushing with reserved glaze on each side during the last 30 seconds of cooking. Drizzle with the cooled mint glaze. |
