Mango Jerk Chicken Kabobs

I was browsing food blogs recently and happened upon a Jerk mango chicken kabobs.  I thought, I have all those ingredients!, but when I went back to find the actual recipe I couldn't find the blog so I had to make up my own.

If you are reading this post and it looks an awful lot like your Jerk mango chicken kabobs let me know and I'll link this post to yours and thank you very much for the idea!

I used some Jerk seasoning I had from Penzeys on hand.  Listen to the ingredient blend:

Hand-mixed from: ginger, brown sugar, sweet chili, garlic, paprika, allspice, lemon grass, thyme, ground Grenadian nutmeg, black pepper, cumin, red pepper and jalapeño.

How good does that sound?! I must admit it was really good.  Even Chris, who doesn't like meat and fruit, ate it and seemed to really like it.
