A quick and easy Beef Polska Kielbasa Kabobs recipe that can be made on an indoor or outdoor grill.

Disclosure: This post was sponsored by Hillshire Farm.

Do you remember last year when BlogHer was in San Diego and I attended a fantastic food photography and styling workshop hosted by Hillshire Farm? Well, once again Hillshire Farm are sponsors of the BlogHer conference (being held in New York) and have asked me to create a 'simplicious dish' using one of their smoked sausage varieties. Chefs on site at BlogHer will be preparing my dish (and dishes from other food bloggers too), and displaying them as vanity plates at the Hillshire Farm booth (#1005) to give you ideas for not only preparing smoked sausage dishes at home, but also as inspiration for you to create your own dish with the chefs at the booth.

So, although chefs at the Hillshire Farm booth will not be preparing these kabobs on site, they will be preparing a slightly different version of this dish for the booth which will be more along the lines of the veggies, and polska kielbasa on rice, I really wanted to show you yet another way to serve this dish at home. It's a very simple, quick-to-make dish that is not only perfect for appetizers, but you could make full-size kabobs (as opposed to the mini versions I made) and serve with rice for dinner. 

Beef Polska Kielbasa Kabobs

Serving size: makes approximately 15 mini kabobs

Tip: To prevent the skewers from burning on the grill, soak them in water first, and then wrap aluminum foil around the ends.

Ingredients:

  • 1 Hillshire Farm Beef Polska Kielbasa
  • 1 package of whole mushrooms
  • 1 punnet of Roma tomatoes
  • 1 green bell pepper
  • 1 cup baby spinach
  • 1 yellow onion
  • 2 tbs olive oil
  • 2 tbs balsamic vinaigrette
  • 1 tsp minced garlic
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme

Turn the indoor stove-top grill onto medium-high and pre-heat (alternatively, you can grill these outdoors too, but I was needing a quick indoor grilling dish).

Combine the olive oil, balsamic vinaigrette, minced garlic, and thyme in a small bowl and set aside. 

Next, prepare the rest of your ingredients – slice the beef polska kielbasa, chop the stems off the mushrooms and spinach, and prepare the onion and green pepper into bite-sized pieces.

Carefully place all ingredients onto small skewers and using a basting brush, sweep a little of the balsamic vinaigrette mixture onto each kabob. Turn that side down onto the grill and add the vinaigrette mixture to the other side. Grill the kabobs for around 12-15 minutes, turning frequently, you will want to be able to smell those mushrooms and see the grill marks.

Once grilled add one last sweep of vinaigrette mixture over the top of each and serve.
