Lemon and Thyme Sausage Kebabs

Recipe #352629 | 40 min | 30 min prep | add private note

One of several budget-savvy, "sizzling sausages" recipes in the current issue of the Australian magazine 'New Idea'. This one food editor Barbara Northwood has costed at $A2.26 per serve. Vary the vegetables to meet your taste preferences and add some heat if that's what you like! If making this, I'd be inclined to increase the number of mushrooms and use onion slices in place of the corn which I've never been particularly fond of.

SERVES 6 , 8 lemon and thyme sausage kebabs (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 8 beef sausages
  • 2 corn cobs, cut into 3 cm slices (11/4 inch)
  • 4 zucchini, cut into 3 cm slices (11/4 inch)
  • 1 red capsicum, chopped
  • 200 g button mushrooms (61/2 ounces)
  • 8 wooden skewers

Lemon Thyme Dressing

Directions

  1. 1
    Place the sausages in a saucepan; cover with water; bring slowly to the boil; simmer gently, for 15 minutes; drain and cool; cut each sausage into 4 pieces.
  2. 2
    Boil, steam or microwave the corn and zucchini, separately, until they are just tender.
  3. 3
    To make the lemon dressing, whisk all the ingredients in a small jug.
  4. 4
    Thread the sausages and vegetables onto skewers; drizzle the kebabs with the dressing; refrigerate, covered, for several hours or overnight.
  5. 5
    Bring the sausage kebabs to room temperature; drain; reserve the dressing; cook the kebabs on a heated, oiled barbecue grill plate, turning occasionally until browne.
  6. 6
    Drizzle with the reserved dressing.

I really enjoyed this colorful kebab recipe. I added some onion to it, and used Conecuh sausage instead of beef sausage. I couldn't really couldn't taste the lemon thyme dressing, except on the corn. I cooked them outside on my charcoal grill, and the smokey flavor made them taste wonderful. Thanks for posting! Made for Newest Zaar tag game.
