Sausage and Veggie Skewers
These spicy sausage and veggie skewers are colorful, delicious, so easy to make, and they are perfect for busy weeknight dinners.
I had some tasty sausages in the fridge, so I grabbed some veggies and made these sausage kabobs (kebabs). I loved the charred bits of the crisp-tender veggies and the spicy sausages. We enjoyed these tasty sausage and vegetable skewers, and thought they paired well with garlic rice and some corn on the cob.
Sausage and Veggie Skewers
Ingredients:
- 4 pork, chicken, or beef sausages of choice, cut into 4-5 bite-sized pieces
- 1 zucchini, cut into bite-sized pieces
- ½ red bell pepper, cut into bite-sized pieces
- ½ yellow bell pepper, cut into bite-sized pieces
- ½ red onion, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 tbsp olive oil, or more if needed
- Garlic powder, to taste
- Dried parsley, to taste
- Sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
How to Make Sausage and Veggie Skewers:
Soak the wooden skewers (if using) in water for 15 minutes, to prevent them from burning on the grill.
Prepare the sausage and vegetables by cutting them into same-sized, bite-sized pieces so they will cook evenly. Place everything in a large bowl, and drizzle in the olive oil and season with sea salt, freshly cracked black pepper, garlic powder, and parsley to taste. Toss to coat everything evenly.
Thread the vegetables and sausage pieces on the wooden (or metal) skewers, alternating sausages and vegetables.
Heat the grill or grill pan over medium-high heat while you prepare the kabobs.
Grill the skewers by placing them on the HOT grill or grill pan, turning occasionally, until the sausage and vegetables are cooked through, about 10-15 minutes.
To serve, transfer the skewers to a platter or plate and serve immediately.
