Rum-glazed Shrimp and Mango

  1. Make glaze: In a small saucepan, combine the 1/4 cup lime juice with the rum, sugar, and ginger; bring to a boil over high heat.
  2. Reduce the heat; simmer, whisking occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and 1 tablespoon water; stir into the lime-juice mixture.
  4. Cook, stirring, until thickened, about 30 seconds.
  5. Remove from the heat; let cool.
  6. Thread the shrimp onto 8 skewers, using 4 shrimp per skewer.
  7. Season on both sides with salt and pepper.
  8. Thread the mango slivers onto 4 skewers, using 2 pieces per skewer.
  9. Brush the shrimp and mango all over with the reserved glaze.
  10. Heat the grill to medium-high; oil the grates.
  11. Place the shrimp and mango skewers on the grill; cook, turning once, until blackened in spots and the shrimp are opaque throughout, 3 to 4 minutes.
  12. In a large bowl, whisk together the remaining tablespoon lime juice with the 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper.
  13. Add the watercress; toss to coat.
  14. To serve, divide the watercress among 4 plates; top each with 2 shrimp skewers and 1 mango skewer.
