Instructions
Creating your Sausage & Shrimp Kabobs is uncomplicated if you follow these easy steps:
1. Preparation: If using bamboo skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.
2. Mix Marinade: In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
3. Add Shrimp and Sausage: Add the shrimp and sausage to the bowl, and toss them in the marinade until well-coated. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes if you have time.
4. Assemble Kabobs: Thread the shrimp, sausage, bell pepper, and onion onto the skewers, alternating ingredients for a colorful presentation.
5. Preheat Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using an oven, preheat to 400°F (200°C).
6. Cook Kabobs: Place the assembled kabobs on the grill or a baking sheet in the oven. Grill for about 10-15 minutes or bake until the shrimp are opaque and cooked through, and the sausage is heated.
7. Turn Kabobs: If grilling, turn the kabobs halfway through cooking for even grilling.
8. Serve: Remove from heat and let rest for a minute before serving hot.
Completing these steps will result in a plate full of delicious Sausage & Shrimp Kabobs, perfect for any occasion!
