  6. Turn grill on to high, close the lid and let heat for 10 minutes. 

  7. Open lid and turn heat down to medium high.

  8. Grill the chicken until browned on both sides and cooked through, about three minutes per side.

To Make Mango Tahini Sauce:

  1. Place all ingredients in a blender or food processor and process until smooth.

  2. Serve grilled chicken kabobs with fresh mango spears and mango tahini sauce.

  3. Optional: garnish with cilantro, red jalapeños and Thai chilies.
