Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 12 ounces Smoked sausage, cut into 1/2-inch slices
- 1 Red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 Green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 1 Red onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 10 Wooden or metal skewers
Instructions
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent burning on the grill.
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.
Place the shrimp in a large bowl and pour half of the marinade over them. Toss to coat and set aside.
In a separate bowl, add the sausage slices, bell peppers, and red onion. Pour the remaining marinade over the mixture and toss until evenly coated.
Thread shrimp, sausage slices, bell peppers, and red onion onto the skewers, alternating for variety and color.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Place the kabobs on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the shrimp are pink, opaque, and cooked through, and the vegetables are slightly charred and tender.
Remove the kabobs from the grill and let them rest for 2 minutes before serving.
Serve the kabobs warm as is or alongside rice, salad, or your favorite dipping sauce.
