Motu means "little island". These bacon-wrapped scallop kabobs are so delicious. I love the glaze and all of veggies and fruit. From chef Keith Famie. I like to serve this over rice. Enjoy!

Overall, I thought these kabobs were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't anything special either.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my kabobs didn't turn out very well. The chicken was dry and the vegetables were mushy.

I'm not a big fan of chicken, but I loved these kabobs. The marinade really tenderized the chicken and the flavors were amazing.
