2

1

To make sauce: In small bowl, whisk together maple syrup, lime juice, chile pepper, basil, parsley,
salt, and black pepper. Cover and store in refrigerator 1 hour or until ready to use.
Thread six 12-inch skewers with pieces of monkfish, apricot, shrimp, scallop, shrimp, apricot, and
monkfish. Brush with oil. Sprinkle skewers with salt and peppercorns.
Place skewers on cooking grate. Grill 8 to 10 minutes or until scallops are opaque and shrimp are
pink, turning once halfway through grilling time. To serve, sprinkle each skewer with about 1
tablespoon sauce. Pass with remaining sauce for dipping.
Makes 6 servings.
Note: If using wooden skewers, soak in water thirty minutes before using so ends won’t burn
during grilling time.
