  1. Preheat your grill to a medium-high heat or set your oven to 200°C if baking.

  2. Thread the ham chunks, pineapple pieces, and red bell pepper squares alternately onto skewers.

  3. Grill the skewers on the preheated grill, turning occasionally, until the ham is slightly charred and the vegetables are tender, about 10-15 minutes.

  4. Meanwhile, prepare the teriyaki glaze by simmering soy sauce, mirin, sugar, and a bit of garlic in a small saucepan over low heat until thickened.

  5. Baste the skewers with the teriyaki glaze during the last few minutes of grilling or baking.

  6. Serve the skewers hot, drizzled with additional teriyaki glaze if desired.
