This recipe was easy and came out very spicy. If you don't like spicy food I recommend you leave out the Scotch Bonnet Pepper.

The first time I made it, I didn't do kebabs and I didn't have access to an outdoor grill, and I still thought they were amazing! Tonight I made the kebobs with soaked bamboo skewers-- WOW! What a difference! Absolutely amazing, and great with the mango salsa. Served it with regular rice, but I'll have to try the Mambo rice next time!
