You Must Know

  • Don't skip soaking the wooden skewers - this prevents them from burning on the grill

Chef's Notes

Don't skip soaking the wooden skewers - this prevents them from burning on the grill

For extra flavor, add a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese during the last minute of grilling

If using metal skewers, reduce cooking time by 1-2 minutes as they conduct heat more efficiently

Serving Suggestions

These skewers are perfect alongside grilled chicken, steak, or fish. They also make a wonderful addition to a summer barbecue spread or Mediterranean mezze platter. Serve them hot off the grill for the best flavor and texture.
