Ingredients

• 2 pieces chicken breast
• 12 ounces kielbasa sausage
• 1 medium zucchini
• 1 medium red bell pepper
• 1 medium yellow bell pepper
• 1 medium red onion
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 8 pieces skewers

Directions

Step 1

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning on the grill.

Step 2

Cut the chicken breasts into 1-inch cubes and the kielbasa sausage into 1/2-inch slices.

Step 3

Slice the zucchini into thick rounds, then cut each round in half. Core and cut the red and yellow bell peppers into 1-inch pieces. Peel and cut the red onion into similar-sized chunks.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, minced garlic, smoked paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.

Step 5

Add the chicken cubes to the bowl and toss to coat. Let the chicken marinate for 10 minutes while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.

Step 6

Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.

Step 7

Assemble the kabobs by threading pieces of chicken, kielbasa, zucchini, bell peppers, and onion onto the skewers. Alternate the ingredients to ensure an even distribution of colors and flavors.

Step 8

Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking. Place the kabobs on the grill and cook for 12-15 minutes, turning every few minutes to ensure even cooking. The chicken should be cooked through and reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

Step 9

Once cooked, remove the kabobs from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve the Kielbasa Chicken Kabobs warm with your favorite side dishes, such as rice or a fresh green salad.
