Garlic Basil Grilled Shrimp and Kielbasa Skewers

Major YUM! Easy and quick, too. 10/10! I forgot to set aside the 2 T. of marinade, so I just brushed some on as the skewers cooked. Will definitely make again and remember to do it correctly next time. Served with Israeli couscous, excellent!

Link to my video of preparation on YouTube: coming soon

Recipe below contains my modifications.

Ingredients:

1/4 c. fresh basil leaves, firmly packed
1/4 c. fresh Italian parsley leaves, firmly packed
1/4 c. olive oil
1 clove garlic
2 T. lime juice
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. fresh ground black pepper
1 lb. large raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
13-14 oz. Kielbasa, sliced in rounds

Directions:

If using wooden skewers, be sure to soak for 30 minutes.

1. In a mini food processor, puree together the basil, parsley, olive oil, lime juice, salt, and pepper.

2. Set aside 2 T. of the basil mixture (the step I forgot to do in video).

3. Place shrimp and kielbasa in a large bowl. Stir in the remaining basil mixture. Let rest while you prepare the grill.

4. When grill is ready, thread skewers with alternating shrimp and kielbasa. Grill for 3 min. per side, until just charred and shrimp have turned slightly opaque.

5. Serve with reserved basil mixture and enjoy!
