You know those days where everything has been hectic and you have no idea what to cook? Where you have no energy to think about planning a meal, much less cook one?
Yep. I’ve had a lot of those days lately. Despite meticulously planning out dinner for the week each and every Sunday, sometimes those plans get cancelled in lieu of a bowl of cereal or a restaurant dinner with Mr. Table because we are just too wiped out to cook and then clean up.
I’m so excited to bring you this super easy dinner for nights like those. It comes together in less than 30 minutes, uses only 3 simple ingredients, and cleanup is virtually nonexistent. I call that a dinner win, my friends.
Ok, you could argue that a bowl of cereal meets all of those criteria, too. But this meal is also hot, delicious and full of fruit, vegetables and high quality lean protein. It’s fancy enough to serve to a crowd at a moment’s notice, or to feed to your family on a busy Tuesday night. All thanks to one key ingredient – Smithfield® Marinated Fresh Pork.
I picked up this Smithfield Sweet Teriyaki Pork Tenderloin at United along with a fresh pineapple and red onion, and dinner was halfway done! Thanks to a yummy and flavorful fresh pork tenderloin that is slow-marinated with no artificial ingredients, these grilled pineapple teriyaki pork kebabs are incredibly easy to make and taste amazing. That’s real flavor, real fast!
It really does not get any simpler. No mixing or marinating. No seasoning or stirring. Simply slice up a pineapple, an onion, and a Smithfield Sweet Teriyaki Pork Tenderloin and thread onto wooden skewers while you wait for your grill to heat up, then grill them and serve! You’ve got a fresh and delicious dinner that will please your whole family! This recipe made Mr. Table happy too, because he had no clean-up afterward! (He cleans the kitchen on nights that I cook, which is most nights. Did I mention he’s the best?)
I served these yummy Grilled Pineapple Teriyaki Pork Kebabs with my grilled sweet potato wedges for a meal that was made entirely on the grill – win! You could also serve them with a green salad, steamed brown rice, quinoa, or fingerling potatoes if you prefer, though I’m partial to the grilled sweet potatoes.
Now you really have no excuse not to whip up a quick and delicious dinner. 3 ingredients, 30 minutes, and no cleanup? Yes, please!

Ingredients
- ½ fresh pineapple
- 1 small red onion
- 1 Smithfield Sweet Teriyaki Pork Tenderloin
- Olive or avocado oil spray
Instructions
- Heat grill to high heat. I used the gas grill because it’s quicker. Soak skewers in water.
- Cut pineapple into chunks: Cut off top and bottom, then cut vertically all the way around to remove the skin. Cut vertically into quarters, then cut each quarter to remove the core. Slice 2 quarters into 1-inch thick slices. Reserve remaining half of pineapple for another use.
- Cut onion into chunks: Slice off top and bottom. Cut onion in half, and then cut each half into 1-inch pieces.
- Slice pork tenderloin into 1-inch pieces.
- Thread everything onto skewers, alternating pork, pineapple, and onion pieces. Spray with oil.
- Grill kebabs on high heat, rotating so that all sides get cooked, until pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F. Remove kebabs from grill and serve!
