Grilled Fruit Skewers | Grilled Summer Fruit Kabobs Recipe | How To Make Grilled Fruit Skewers
Kabobs are one of the most popular grilling items, especially chicken kabobs or shrimp skewers. But have you ever tried fruit kabobs? They are life-changing! Trust me, if you’ve never tried them…you must make them now! This grilled version is a favorite, as well as my easy rainbow fruit kabobs.
When you grill fruit, the natural sugars in the fruit caramelize over the heat and bring out the sweet flavor of the fruit! I find that in the summer, the most popular dessert tends to be fresh fruits. So when I’m invited to a barbecue, I love taking skewered fruit on a wooden stick. When everyone is done with grilling the main meal, I slap some skewers on the grill for the sweet taste of grilled fruit to cap off the meal.
Most people are skeptical. Why would you grill fruit?! It sounds weird, right? But once you try it, you’ll realize it’s actually a sweet and healthy dessert that actually tastes great! And the great part is that it only takes a couple minutes on the grill and you’re donezo! Serve it with some yogurt or a scoop of ice cream, and all that skepticism from your grilling audience will vanish. I promise.
Barbecuing gets a bad rap sometimes as being the domain of fatty meats and high-calorie sauces, but the truth of the matter is that smoking and grilling don't add fat to a dish, only flavor. With the right ingredients the outdoor cooker can be the focus of cooking for a healthy diet.
These grilled fruit skewers, with their spicy flair, make eating fruit exciting. It's a versatile dessert or side dish recipe that can be made with any number of fruit combinations. Pair it with grilled chicken and enjoy a guilt-free meal.
Fresh and delicious grilled fruit kabobs topped with a cinnamon honey glaze. The perfect healthy side dish or appetizer for any meal that will be a hit with the entire family!
If you’re looking for an easy side dish to serve at your next BBQ or simply a yummy summer snack, I’ve got you covered with these grilled fruit kabobs. The best thing about them is that you can use whatever fruit you have on hand. Pineapple, watermelon, and peaches tend to hold their shape the best, but any fruit would taste delicious. The cinnamon honey glaze is what really takes the grilled fruit over the top! It adds the perfect amount of sweetness.

Sausage and Peppers Kabobs with Garlic Aioli | Let's Celebrate TV
Sausage and peppers, that classic Italian-American dish. Sometimes it's a sandwich, sometimes it's in red sauce with pasta. Delicious but, it's been done to death. My Sausage & Peppers Kabobs are grilled for a new fresh flavor. Skip the marinara, and try an easy garlic aioli. Served with a fresh salad and maybe some warm, crusty bread, and you have the 2020 version of an old classic comfort dish.
=== ???????????? Recipe ===
1 1/2 pounds Sweet Italian Sausage, cut into bite size pieces
1 1/2 pounds Hot Italian Sausage, cut into bite sized pieces
4 Bell peppers (various colors) cut into 1 inch size pieces
12 bamboo skewers
Olive oil
Brush
Salt & Pepper
Soak the skewers in water for at least 30 minutes.
Pre-heat grill or grill pan. If making in the oven, pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees.
Skewer each ingredient starting with a piece of pepper, and alternating between pepper and sausage. Pepper, hot sausage, pepper, sweet sausage, pepper. Repeat until you have 2 pieces of each kind of sausage with pepper in between on each skewer.
Brush lightly with olive oil on all sides, season with salt and pepper.
Grill for 15-20 minutes, turning regularly. (If being done in the oven, roast at 350 degrees.) Grill until an internal temperature of 160 degrees.
Serve with a garlic aioli (recipe follows)
Garlic Aioli:
3/4 cup mayonnaise
3 cloves of garlic finely minced or grated on a micro plane
2 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice
Salt & pepper
Combine all ingredients in a bowl, mix well to combine. Chill for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Pina Colada Chicken and Sausage Kabobs Gluten Free
Can you hear the waves crashing on the beach? This was a favorite with my kids in the summer. The flavors are great together with the coconut and pineapple chunks (not to mention a little rum) along with the chicken, smoked sausage, and vegetables. It is a fun recipe that can be made smaller or larger depending on how many will be eating. Mix and match veggies and meat however you want too. Adding shrimp makes it especially an island treat.
Ingredients:
1 Fresh pineapple cut into 1 pieces or 1 large can of pineapple chunks in their own juice (not syrup)
3 Boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into bite size pieces about 1-1-1/2 pieces
1/2 to 1 Beef smoked sausage link cut into half inch pieces
1/2 sweet onion cut into bite size pieces
1 Bell pepper any color cut into bite size pieces
3/4 C. coconut milk or coconut cream from a can that has been thoroughly shaken and whisked in a bowl to remove the big piece of coconut cream on the top. You can use light coconut milk if you prefer.
1 C. Pineapple juice
OR 2 C. Coconut Pineapple juice in your juice isle
1 t. smoked or sweet paprika
1 t. salt
1 t. pepper
1 t. garlic powder
1 t. onion powder
1/4 t. dried ginger or freshly grated
1-1/2 oz. Rum of your choice (optional)
Coconut rice (recipe follows)
Let marinate for 1/2 hour
Directions:
Place grill on medium temp
You will need wooden skewers either wood (soaked in water) or metal ones.
Alternate meat and veggies on the skewers.
Grill for about 20 minutes turning 2-3 times
Coconut rice:
2 C. long grain rice (i used jasmine)
1 C. coconut milk (you can use coconut water instead)
2 C. chicken broth or water
1 t. sugar
1/2 t. salt
Rinse rice and place into pan and stir in liquids and salt and bring up to a low boil. Lower heat to low and simmer for 18 minutes with the lid on. Take off heat and let sit for about 10 minutes.
Remove lid and fluff with a fork. The coconut milk will make really fluffy rice.
