Sweet and Spicy Bacon Kebabs with Spring onion-Ginger Relish

These sweet and spicy bacon kebabs offer a sophisticated twist on a classic barbecue favourite. The combination of thick-cut bacon, honey-chilli glaze, and a piquant spring onion-ginger relish creates a complex balance of heat, salt, and acidity. This dairy-free dish is particularly impressive as a party snack or a unique addition to a weekend grill, where the bacon becomes beautifully crisp and lacquered over the indirect heat of the coals.

Designed for those who enjoy bold East Asian flavours, this recipe transitions perfectly from a summer starter to a savoury brunch side. The relish adds a vibrant brightness that cuts through the richness of the smoky bacon, while the lime wedges provide a necessary citrus lift. It is an effortless yet impactful way to elevate simple supermarket ingredients into a gourmet outdoor feast.

  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil

  • 1/2 teaspoons finely grated peeled ginger

  • 1/2 teaspoons light brown sugar

  • Kosher salt

  • Vegetable oil (for grill)

  • 2 tablespoons honey

  • 2 tablespoons sambal oelek

How to make Sweet and Spicy Bacon Kebabs with Spring onion-Ginger Relish

Toss spring onions, chilli, lime juice, oil, ginger, and brown sugar in a medium bowl to combine; season with salt.

Prepare a grill for medium-high, indirect heat (for a charcoal grill, bank coals on one side of grill; for a gas grill, leave one or two burners off). Oil grates. Combine honey, sambal oelek, vinegar, and Sriracha in a small bowl; set glaze aside.

Thread bacon onto 6–8 skewers, folding back and forth in accordion style, and grill over indirect heat, turning every minute or so, until browned and crisp, 10–12 minutes. Baste with reserved glaze, turning every 30 seconds or so, until lacquered and slightly sticky, about 3 minutes (move to an even cooler spot if needed to keep glaze from scorching). Serve bacon with relish and lime wedges.

Glaze can be made 1 week ahead. Cover and chill.
