Cowboy Butter Kielbasa and Potato Skewers
A perfect blend of smoky kielbasa and tender potatoes coated in a buttery, herby sauce, these skewers are quick to prepare and great for family gatherings.
Ingredients
For the skewers
- 1 lb kielbasa smoky flavor that enhances the dish
- 1 lb potatoes provide heartiness and texture
- 1/2 cup butter adds richness and flavor
- 3 cloves garlic for a punch of aromatic goodness
- 1/4 cup parsley fresh herbiness to brighten the dish
- 2 tbsp lemon juice for a zesty lift
- 1 tsp salt enhances overall flavors
- 1/2 tsp pepper adds a touch of spice
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
- Wash and cut the potatoes into even-sized pieces.
- In a pot, boil the potatoes for about 10-15 minutes until fork-tender.
- Drain the potatoes and let them cool slightly.
- Slice the kielbasa into bite-sized pieces.
- Melt the butter in a bowl and mix in minced garlic, chopped parsley, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
Cooking
- Once the potatoes are cool enough to handle, thread them onto skewers alternating with pieces of kielbasa.
- Brush the skewers generously with the cowboy butter mixture.
- Place the skewers on the preheated grill.
- Cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally until the kielbasa is browned and the potatoes are crispy.
- Look for a golden-brown color and slightly charred edges for the best flavor.
Serving
- Remove the skewers from the grill carefully.
- Let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
- Garnish with additional parsley if desired and serve warm.
Notes
Soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes prior to grilling to prevent burning. Try using a variety of potatoes, such as Yukon gold or red potatoes, for different textures.
