Chicken-Shrimp Kabob Sekuwa Recipe

In a blender, combine all the marinating ingredients to form a marinade. In a large bowl, mix chicken and shrimps with the marinade. Allow marinating for 4 to 6 hours. Fire up a charcoal grill. Clean the grill surface thoroughly. Thread, alternatively, the marinated chicken cubes, shrimps, and vegetables into skewers. Do not overcrowd the skewers with pieces. Grill the skewered kabobs (sekuwa), frequently turning and basting with melted butter until cooked through. Take the cooked sekuwas off the grill and generously brush with melted butter before serving. To serve, arrange the sekuwas on the bed of rice pilaf, complemented with a chutney (achar) of your choice on the side. Sprinkle chopped green onions over the sekuwas. Tomato achar or cilantro-chili achar make an ideal condiment for sekuwas.
