GRILLED CHICKEN AND MANGO SKEWERS
The inspiration for this recipe came from the charbroiled chicken skewers I used to enjoy while strolling along Calle Ocho in Miami on Sunday afternoons. Feel free to garnish with sesame seeds or spritz with fresh lime juice. -Wolfgang Hanau, West Palm Beach, Florida

GRILLED GARLIC SHRIMP
These grilled shrimp receive a double dose of garlic flavor - fresh garlic and garlic salt. Try not to marinate longer than 30 minutes, as the acid from the lemon juice will start to break down the delicate shrimp meat and make it mushy. Extra large shrimp come 26 to 30 shrimp per pound.

Steps:
- Combine oil, lemon juice, garlic cloves, parsley, basil, garlic, salt, and pepper in the bowl of a food processor. Blend until marinade is smooth, about 20 seconds.

- Soak wooden skewers in cold water while shrimp is marinating.
- Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
