Preparation

Step 1

For marinade, blend ginger, brown sugar and lemon and lime juices in a small pan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until brown sugar is completely dissolved. Remove from heat; set aside.

Carefully thread the fruits onto the skewers. An eye-pleasing order: Grape, mango, pineapple, another grape, peach, kiwi fruit, more mango, more pineapple, a third grape and, finally, a peach half again.

Brush kebabs generously with marinade 15 minutes before grilling or broiling. Grill kebabs 5 minutes, turning them once. Remove from heat and glaze once more with the marinade before serving.
