  2. Bring chicken broth, coconut milk and salt to a boil in a large saucepan. Stir in rice. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes or until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender. Remove from heat; let stand 5 minutes. Toss gently with mangoes and pistachios.
  3. Brush your Memphis Wood Fire Grill lightly with vegetable oil and set the temperature 500°F using fruitwood pellets.
  4. Thread shrimp onto skewers, piercing each shrimp near the head and tail. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until shrimp turn pink. Serve on top of the Caribbean rice and garnish with chopped cilantro.
