I was treated to these earlier this week by my gracious host and hostess with a gathering of friends. Bravo to their generosity and good eats! This recipe is a spicy Asian take on kebabs. I loved them and want to share the recipe with you all. Read more . I'm sure you could make these on a grill pan inside. Enjoy. Adapeted from Bon Appétit. Ingredients:
