Peel kiwifruit and cut into quarters. (The kiwifruit skin is completely edible. For added fiber and texture, simply wash and trim ends from kiwifruit. Rub lightly to dry before cutting.) Cut chicken into sixteen 1-inch pieces. Core and quarter pepper; cut each quarter into 4 pieces.

Peel and quarter onion; cut each quarter into 4 pieces. Toss chicken, peppers, and onions with Lime-Ginger Marinade; marinate 1 to 2 hours in refrigerator.

When ready to cook, toss kiwifruit and shrimp with other ingredients to coat with marinade. Divide ingredients among 8 skewers.

Grill or broil, 3 to 4 minutes per side, turning skewers once, until chicken and shrimp are cooked through.

For the marinade: Whisk all ingredients until well combined.
