INSTRUCTIONS
Heat oil in small saucepan over very low heat until warm. Stir in chilies,
ginger and garlic. Cover and cook 6 minutes, stirring occasionally (do not
brown). Mix wine, soy sauce, sugar and cornstarch dissolves. Add to chili
mixture; increase heat to medium-high and whisk until mixture comes to boil
and thickens slightly. Remove sauce from heat. Transfer to bowl and cool to
room temperature. Stir in lime juice. (Can be made 4 hours ahead. Let stand
at room temperature.)
Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Pour 1/2 cup sauce into small bowl.
Add cilantro to remaining sauce; reserve. Alternate 4 shrimp and 4 scallops
on each skewer. Brush both sides with 1/2 cup sauce. Grill just until
cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to plates. Serve with
reserved sauce.
