Active Time: 20 mins

Total Time: 20 mins

Yield: 4 serves

Ingredients

8 ounces large peeled, deveined raw shrimp (about 16)

6 ounces smoked sausage (such as Conecuh), cut into 1⁄2-inch rounds (about 1 cup)

1 small sweet onion, cut into 1-inch pieces (about 1 cup)

1 small red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces (about 3⁄4 cup)

16 cherry tomatoes (about 1⁄2 pint)

3 tablespoons olive oil

2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning (such as Slap Ya Mama)

1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme

1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano

2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Directions

1. Preheat grill to high (450°F to 500°F), or heat a grill pan over high. Combine shrimp, sausage, onion, bell pepper, tomatoes, olive oil, Cajun seasoning, thyme, and oregano in a large bowl, and toss to coat. Thread mixture onto 8 (10-inch) skewers, alternating ingredients.

2. Place skewers on oiled grates, and grill, uncovered, until vegetables and sausage are lightly charred and shrimp is cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer skewers to a serving plate, and sprinkle with parsley.
