Mango Pork Kabobs
About 2 weeks ago I went out to a restaurant in Royal Oak, MI for a girls night out and one of the specials was this pork kabob masterpiece. Seriously. I wasn’t listening super closely to the description, so really I was on my own. I guessed that the relish that was on it contained mango, and I knew there was red onion on the kabob. This inspired me to try to replicate it best I can. This was the result.
I have to tell you that this is one of the most off-the-cuff recipes I have ever made, but it is also now one of my favorites. The flavors work perfectly, and my husband who is not a huge pork fan also loved it.
The best part, this dish (if served with the correct proprtions) is 430 cal and 15g fat per serving (though that included the green beans I served on the side).
Enjoy!
