Look at me - cooking again.
I actually followed a recipe for the gill!
This is simply a delicious meal on a stick. I have seen the idea of using sausages in kabobs and I thought it was ingenious. How superbly simple! Adding potatoes with the sausages is a touch Germanic but I was convinced it would be Delicious.
The potatoes are tossed in a garlicky olive oil mixture seasoned with Italian seasoning, then pre-cooked in the microwave so they were mostly done before putting them on the grill. This is necessary mostly because the other kebab ingredients cook so quickly.
A perfect meal on a stick!
Italian Garlic Sausage & Potato Kebabs with Veggies
2 Tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 - 2 cloves garlic, peeled and chopped fine
2 medium red potatoes
2 small zucchini
1 yellow or red bell pepper, cut into chunks
4 sausages, cut into chunks
Other veggie options: chunks of red onion, cherry or grape tomatoes, mushrooms
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, seasoning and garlic and let sit for at least 15 - 30 minutes for the garlic to infuse into the oil. Fire up the grill.
Chop the potatoes into 8 pieces each and toss them in half the garlic oil. Put them in a microwave safe bowl and sprinkle with Red Robin seasoning (or your favorite seasoning) and fresh ground pepper. Microwave on high for 2 minutes. Stir. Microwave again for 2 minutes. Test the potatoes with a fork--if they are not starting to get tender, microwave a little longer.
Next, toss the zucchini and bell pepper with the rest of the garlicky oil.
Thread the sausages, potatoes, zucchini and bell pepper onto metal skewers (or wooden ones that have been pre-soaked). Set the kabobs on the grill and let them cook, turning a few times (with a protective glove on your hand) to make sure all the sides get fully cooked. Remove from the grill and serve while hot.
