Note*: If you do not have a barbecue grill but want your food to look and taste grilled, use a stovetop ridged grill pan. Most have a baked on black finish that resists sticking and, when heated, leaves "grill" marks that would fool anyone. The ridges also keep foods above much of the fat that may drip off. To make these recipes you will need a large grill pan, or you can work in batches. Allow time for your pan to get good and hot, lightly brush it with oil, then grill as the recipe directs. Stovetop grilling can be smoky, so turn on your stove's hood fan and keep a window open. Note**: If using wooden or bamboo skewers, soak them in water 30 minutes to prevent scorching. Run 2 skewers side by side through the food to keep it from swiveling when turned on the grill.
