Scallops and Mango Skewers
- scallops
- 1-inch chunks of mango
- chunks of red bell pepper
- wedges of red onion
- vegetable oil
- salt and pepper
- chopped cilantro and lime wedges
- Heat a charcoal or gas grill until very hot.
- Rub the grill grate with a little oil and put it 3 or 4 inches from the heat.
- Thread the scallops (through their equators) onto metal or soaked wooden skewers, alternating them with 1-inch chunks of mango, chunks of red bell pepper, and wedges of red onion.
- Brush with vegetable oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and grill until theyre brown on the bottom and release easily from the grill, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Turn and brown on the other side; total cooking time should be 3 to 5 minutes; take the scallops off the grill before the interior becomes totally opaque.
- Garnish: chopped cilantro and lime wedges.
