SCALLOPS AND MANGO SKEWERS
Sweet and meaty, fresh scallops are the most user-friendly of mollusks and make for easy summer suppers. Skewer them with bell peppers, red onion and mango, and they can go from grill to table in about 15 minutes flat. The trick to grilling scallops is simple: Err on the side of undercooking since an undercooked scallop is far more enjoyable than an overcooked one. Take the scallops off the grill before they're opaque all the way through.

- Make sure the skewers are hot before grilling: This will help to prevent the scallops from sticking to the grill.
- Baste the skewers with the mango masala sauce while grilling: This will help to keep them moist and flavorful.
- Serve the skewers immediately with the remaining mango masala sauce: This dish is best enjoyed fresh off the grill.
