Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 Italian sausages
- 1 large Red bell pepper
- 1 large Green bell pepper
- 1 large Yellow bell pepper
- 1 large Red onion
- 1 medium Zucchini
- 12 Cherry tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Dried basil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 8 Wooden or metal skewers
Instructions
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Slice the Italian sausages into 1-inch thick pieces.
Cut the red, green, and yellow bell peppers into 1-inch squares.
Peel and cut the red onion into similar-sized chunks as the bell peppers.
Slice the zucchini into 1/2-inch thick rounds.
In a large bowl, combine the bell peppers, onion, zucchini, and cherry tomatoes. Drizzle the olive oil over the vegetables and sprinkle with oregano, basil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss gently to coat evenly.
Assemble the skewers by alternating sausage pieces, peppers, onion, zucchini, and cherry tomatoes until all ingredients are used.
Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Cook for 12-15 minutes, turning every few minutes, until the sausages are fully cooked and the vegetables are tender and slightly charred.
Serve the skewers hot with your favorite dipping sauce or over a bed of rice or salad for a complete meal.
