Grilled Chicken And Shrimp

To grill shrimp, peel and de-vein by splitting on underside down to tail. Try to avoid cutting meat (use a sharp knife or scissors). Cut chicken into 1 inch cubes.

Combine garlic, lime juice, butter, onion powder and cumin in a bowl, add shrimp and chicken. Stir to coat with butter sauce and refrigerate for 1 hour.

While starting the barbecue, string chicken and shrimp on separate skewers. Grill about 4 to 5 inches over hot to medium coals, turning a few times and basting with remaining marinade.

Cook shrimp for 5 to 6 minutes and chicken 10 to 12 minutes. Adjust grilling time according to temperature of coals and outside air.

Serve with rice or Italian pasta.
