Do you have two pears? No, not as in playing cards, but for the main ingredient to share the skewers with the turkey breast!

What You'll Need

  • 4 (12-inch) wooden or metal skewers
  • 1/2 cup apple juice
  • 1/3 cup light rum
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 medium-sized red bell peppers, cut into 1-1/2-inch pieces
  • 2 fresh pears, cored and cut into 8 wedges each
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless turkey breast cutlets, cut into 1-1/2-inch chunks
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

What to Do

  1. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 15 to 20 minutes. Preheat the broiler.
     
  2. In a small bowl, combine apple juice, rum, honey and cinnamon; mix until thoroughly combined. Place 3/4 cup of the mixture in a small saucepan and reserve the remaining mixture for basting the kebabs.
     
  3. On each skewer, thread alternating pieces of pepper, pear, and turkey, starting and ending with a piece of pepper.
     
  4. Broil kebabs 20 to 25 minutes, or until no pink remains in turkey, basting every 5 minutes with the reserved honey mixture.
     
  5. Meanwhile, dissolve cornstarch in the 3/4 cup honey mixture and heat over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes, or until thick and glossy. Remove from heat. Drizzle heated honey sauce over kebabs.
