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.
