DIRECTIONS
For the Teriyaki Sauce:
Whisk all ingredients in small saucepan. Simmer over low heat until thickened. Remove from heat and set aside.
For the Skewers:
Cut peppers, onion and pineapple into large chunks and skewer with dove breasts. If using wooden skewers, pre-soak in water for at least 30 minutes to avoid burning. Brush vegetable oil over skewers and season with salt and pepper. Set aside. Prepare grill for high-heat, direct cooking.
Clean grill grates and brush with vegetable oil. Cook skewers until vegetables and dove breasts are slightly charred on both sides, basting with teriyaki sauce. Dove should not be cooked past medium.
For the Fried Rice:
Cook chopped bacon over medium heat in large skillet. Add diced ham, onion and carrots and sauté until soft and translucent. Turn heat to medium-high and add rice; mix rice until coated with bacon grease; add oil if necessary. Stir in soy sauce, sriracha and pepper to taste. Add egg and sauté until rice is slightly browned. Mix in frozen peas and stir until tender. Taste, and season as needed.
Serve skewers with fried rice and extra teriyaki sauce on the side. Garnish with green onion and toasted sesame seeds.
