Key Ingredient

Hot Louisiana Smoked Sausage 28oz.

28 Ounces Farmer John Hot Louisiana Smoked Sausage, Cut Into ¼-inch Pieces

2 Pounds Tail-On Shrimp, Peeled & Deveined

1/2 Cup Sherry Vinegar

2 Tablespoons Fresh Parsley, Minced

3 Cloves Garlic, Minced or Smashed

1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice

1 Tablespoon Paprika

1 Teaspoon Cayenne Pepper

1 Teaspoon Ground Cumin

1 Teaspoon Ground Coriander

1/4 Teaspoon Freshly Ground Black Pepper

Salt, to Taste

2/3 Cup Olive Oil

2 Sweet Bell Pepper, Seeded & Cut Into 1-Inch Pieces

1 Large Onion, Peeled & Cut Into 1-Inch Pieces

Key IngredientHot Louisiana Smoked Sausage 28oz.

Directions

1Whisk together the vinegar, parsley, garlic, lemon, paprika, cayenne, cumin, coriander, black pepper, and oil. Toss in the shrimp. Cover, refrigerate and marinate the shrimp for 30 minutes or more

2Heat the grill to medium-high heat. Thread alternating pieces of shrimp, sausage, peppers, and onion onto 8 6-inch skewers. Pro Tip: It's easiest if you skewer the shrimp through the head and tail forming a "c" so they don't fall through the grill

3Grill, turning once, until shrimp are pink and cooked through, about 6 minutes

4Serve immediately with any sauce you desire. Pro Tip: Soak wooden skewers for 20 minutes before using them on the grill to keep them from getting burnt. Optional sides: rice and beans
