The way I look at it - we are just now approaching prime grilling season in Atlanta. Standing on my back deck at in the middle of July with the afternoon sun beating down is absolutely brutal. I end up running in and out of the house over and over again, just to try and avoid the excessive heat.
For a girl from Northeast Ohio who is used to summer grilling and summer picnics, this is the weather I've been waiting for - even if it is the middle of September.
Turkey Sausage Skewers
1 package turkey smoked sausage
2 zucchini
1 red bell pepper
1 onion
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
3 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 clove garlic, minced
Zest of 1 large lemon
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Combine oil, parsley, chives, soy sauce, garlic, lemon zest and pepper.
1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
3 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 clove garlic, minced
Zest of 1 large lemon
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Combine oil, parsley, chives, soy sauce, garlic, lemon zest and pepper.
Cut sausage and vegetables into 1 inch pieces.
Thread sausage onto skewers, alternating with bell pepper, zucchini and onion. Brush with marinade.
I even put together a few "vegetable-only" skewers for me with the extra veggies.
Put the skewers on the grill.
Remove from grill and brush with extra marinade.
Serve the skewers with rice and voila - a beautiful and delicious grilled dinner!
My family really liked these skewers. I liked the vegetarian option and Ben and Courtney liked the sausage skewers. Totally worth waiting until September for optimum grilling weather.
Ciao!
