Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Marinade: In a shallow dish or large freezer bag, whisk together soy sauce, vinegar, honey, ginger, 2 tsp (10 mL) of the oil, and garlic. Add pork and mix to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
Meanwhile, if using wooden skewers, soak in water for 30 minutes.
Step 2
In a bowl, toss pineapple and red onion with remaining oil and salt.
Step 3
Thread skewers with marinated pork, onion, and pineapple. Repeat twice and add one more piece of pork at the end of the skewer.
Step 4
Preheat air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
Step 5
Air fry skewers for about 8 minutes, turning halfway through. Serve immediately.
