Chicken And Sausage Kabobs Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Take 4 links of skinless smoked sausage (I like Ekrich) and slice it on an angle. Cut up the chicken to about the same size pieces as the sausage. Cut the french bread loaf longways down the middle, then slice the same size as the chicken & sauasge too. Skewer the kabobs as follows: bread, sausage, bay leaf, chicken. Baste the kabobs with extra-virgin olive and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• Place skewers on the hot grill and cook until golden brown, turning to get an even color all over. Baste with lemon juice as they cook.

Steps:

• For the marinade: Whisk the oil, parsley, chives, soy sauce, garlic, lemon zest and pepper in a medium bowl.
• For the skewers: Alternating the vegetables and meat, thread 3 pieces each of sausage, zucchini and lemon, and 2 pieces each of fennel and bell pepper onto each skewer. Pour or brush the marinade over the skewers. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour until ready to grill.
• Preheat a gas or charcoal grill. Oil the grill with vegetable oil. Grill the skewers, turning occasionally, until the sausage is cooked through, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Arrange on a platter and serve.

• Drain chicken, discarding marinade. Thread strips of chicken and sausage onto 6 long skewers.
• For a charcoal grill, grill kabobs on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium coals for 12 to 14 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink, turning to brown evenly. (For a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Place kabobs on grill rack over heat. Cover and grill as above.) Remove kabobs from grill. Serve with Herbed Dipping Sauce and grilled lime wedges. Makes 6 servings.
• Herbed Dipping Sauce: In a small bowl combine 1/4 cup dairy sour cream, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons finely chopped green onion and/or chives, 1 tablespoon lime juice, 1 clove minced garlic, 1 tablespoon snipped fresh Italian parsley, and 1 tablespoon snipped fresh oregano.

Steps:

• Heat coals or gas grill for direct heat. Place potato wedges in microwavable dish. Add 2 tablespoons water. Cover and microwave on High about 4 minutes, stirring once, just until potatoes begin to soften; drain.
• Thread potatoes, chicken, sausage and bell pepper alternately on each of six 12-inch metal skewers. Mix remaining ingredients.
• Cover and grill kabobs 4 to 6 inches from medium heat 15 to 20 minutes, turning kabobs 2 or 3 times and brushing with chili sauce mixture during last 5 to 8 minutes of grilling, until chicken is no longer pink.

Steps:

• Mix dressing, sage and garlic. Reserve 1/3 cup dressing mixture. Pour remaining dressing mixture over chicken in shallow dish; turn to coat both sides of each piece. Refrigerate 1 hour to marinate.
• Remove chicken from marinade; discard marinade. Thread chicken alternately onto skewers with sausage and onions.
• Grill 12 to 14 min. or until chicken and sausage are done (165ºF), turning occasionally and brushing with the reserved dressing mixture.

Steps:

• Cut the chicken and sausage into thick pieces of roughly equal size and place in a large ziploc bag.
• In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the remaining ingredients for the marinade. Pour the marinade into the ziploc bag with the meat, seal and distribute so all of the meat is covered with marinade. Let sit for a minimum of two hours or up to eight.
• When finished marinating, skewer the meat onto metal or wooden skewers, alternating two pieces of sausage, then two pieces of chicken.
• Grill for 20 minutes or until done, turning the kebabs once halfway during cooking.
• Serve on a platter, and take the meat off the skewers at the table. It makes a nice presentation.
