Recipe notes
Each juicy shrimp hugs a chunk of Cajun sausage in this quick kebab recipe. We brush the kebabs with a spicy, seasoned oil for an extra punch of flavor.
RECIPE Preparation
- Soak bamboo skewers in water for 30 minutes before starting. Heat a gas grill to high or heat coals in a charcoal grill until they glow bright orange and ash over.
- While grill is heating, wrap shrimp around andouille slices and thread onto bamboo skewers. In a small bowl, stir together oil, thyme, garlic, pepper, chili flakes, and paprika. Brush seasoning mixture onto skewers.
- Place skewers on the grill and cook until sausage is slightly charred and shrimp are cooked through, about 4 minutes on each side. Continue to brush with seasoned oil while cooking.
- Serve with your favorite grilling side dishes, or over soft polenta.
