Grilled Chicken and Mango Skewers image

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
