Description

Juicy shrimp and smoky sausage are grilled to perfection with colorful veggies on skewers. This easy surf-and-turf recipe is perfect for BBQs, family dinners, or summer parties.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb jumbo shrimp (peeled and deveined, tails on)

  • 12 oz smoked sausage (andouille or kielbasa), sliced into thick rounds

  • 1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces

  • 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces

  • 1 red onion, cut into wedges

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • Juice of 1 lemon

  • 1 tsp paprika

  • 1 tsp dried oregano

  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

  • Skewers (metal or soaked wooden)


Instructions

  • In a large bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper.

  • Add shrimp and sausage slices. Toss to coat evenly. Let marinate for 30 minutes.

  • Thread shrimp, sausage, and vegetables onto skewers, alternating pieces.

  • Preheat grill to medium-high heat (around 375–400°F).

  • Brush grill grates with oil to prevent sticking.

  • Grill kabobs for 2–3 minutes per side or until shrimp are opaque and sausage is browned.

  • Remove from grill and serve warm over rice or salad.

Notes

Use jumbo shrimp to avoid overcooking.

Shrimp cooks quickly—watch closely.

For extra flavor, add a pinch of cayenne or a drizzle of garlic butter after grilling.

Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 2 days.
