    Grilled chicken skewers

    Source of Recipe

    Marla

    List of Ingredients

    1 lb chicken, boned and skinned (use what you like)
    1 lb Italian sausage (optional)
    1 lb eggplant, zucchini or baby squash
    2 bell peppers, preferably one each red and yellow
    2 lemons, cut into eighths
    salt and pepper to taste


    Recipe

    Start a gas or charcoal grill or preheat the broiler; fire should
    be moderately hot. If using wood skewers, soak them in water
    while you prepare food. Cut chicken, sausage and veggies into
    1 - 2 inch pieces. Using 8 skewers, alternate ingredients, but
    generally, surround both chicken and sausage with the more moist
    lemon and eggplant. Pack food fairly tightly together on each
    skewer, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Tuck some rosemary
    among chicken and vegetables. Grill over moderate heat, covered
    or not, turning the skewers 3 or 4 times to brown evenly. Total
    cooking time will be 10 to 15 minutes, depending on heat of grill
    and distance from heat source. When chicken and sausage are
    browned, eggplant will be tender; do not overcook. Serve,
    squeezing hot lemon juice over all. Serves 8.
