- Preheat your grill or oven before cooking the skewers to get a nice sear and to seal in the juices.
- If you prefer a milder flavor, remove the seeds from the red hot chili peppers before adding them to the marinade.
- Don't overcrowd the skewers as it can cause them to cook unevenly. Leave a small gap between each piece.
