Easy Grilled Sausage Kabobs
These smoky, saucy sausage and vegetable skewers are the perfect quick dinner for a busy weeknight.
recipesbynani.comMy family loves these sausage kabobs because they are fun to eat and full of bold, savory flavor. You can use your favorite type of sausage to keep things interesting every time you make them.
My top tip is to soak wooden skewers in water for thirty minutes before you start. This simple step keeps them from burning while your food grills to perfection.
🧺 Ingredients
- 1 pound pre cooked sausage of your choice, cut into 1 inch chunks
- 2 bell peppers, cut into 1 inch pieces
- 1 large red onion, cut into 1 inch chunks
- 1/2 cup barbecue sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 8 wooden skewers, soaked in water
👩🍳Instructions
- 1
Preheat your outdoor grill to medium high heat or prepare an indoor grill pan over medium high heat.
- 2
Thread the sausage pieces, bell peppers, and red onion onto the skewers, alternating them until all ingredients are used.
- 3
Brush the kabobs lightly with olive oil to help them brown evenly.
- 4
Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 8 to 10 minutes, turning them occasionally so the vegetables get tender and the sausage develops a nice char.
- 5
During the last 2 minutes of cooking, brush the barbecue sauce over the skewers.
- 6
Remove from the heat and serve warm.
💡 Tips
Serve these skewers over a bed of fluffy rice or with a side of potato salad for a complete meal. If you have leftovers, take the meat and veggies off the sticks and store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days.
