TIP – Prepare your veggies and meats in the morning. Essentially it will allow the meats to marinade. The actually cooking of the dish only takes 45 minutes. 

MAKE GARLIC MIX 

Peel fresh garlic and mince. 

Add 2 tablespoons of Olive Oil.

CHICKEN  

Cut Chicken breasts into cubes.

SAUSAGES 

Cut Italian sausages into 1/4 inch slices. Place in fridge until needed

RAW JUMBO SHRIMP ( 21/25) 

Peel and Devine 20 shrimp

Remove tail if you like, but not necessary. I did so this time round because it was easier for my 5 year old granddaughter to eat. Most restaurants keep the tail on for presentation.
