Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 24 pieces frozen pre-cooked meatballs
- 2 medium bell peppers (red, yellow, or green)
- 1 large red onion
- 1 large zucchini
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 pieces metal or wooden skewers
Instructions
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent burning.
Preheat your grill or broiler to medium-high heat.
Cut the bell peppers, red onion, and zucchini into bite-sized chunks, approximately 1-inch pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, add the olive oil, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
Add the meatballs and chopped vegetables to the bowl. Toss everything until well coated in the seasoning mixture.
Thread the meatballs and vegetables onto the skewers, alternating between them for a colorful arrangement. Aim for 3 meatballs per skewer with vegetables in between.
Place the kebobs on the preheated grill or under the broiler. Cook for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and slightly charred and the meatballs are heated through.
Remove the kebobs from the grill, let them cool slightly, and serve warm. These pair well with a side salad or some crusty bread.
