What's for dinner 11/10/10: Sausage & Chicken Kabob my style with smashed potatoes

Last night's Feingold friendly meal was complements of Taste of Home's website but tweeked my style and it turned out great...Sausage & Chicken stir fry with smashed red potatoes (mixed with butter and organic sour cream).










(Sorry about the blurry photo and paper plates LOL)


Sausage & Chicken Kabobs
Serves 6-8

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (I used lemon juice)
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 1/8 teaspoon seasoned salt (I used Morton's natural seasoning)
• 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-1/2-inch cubes
• 1 pound fully cooked kielbasa or Polish sausage, cut into 3/4-inch slices
• 4 medium red potatoes, cut into 1-1/2-inch cubes 
• 2 cups cubed fresh pineapple (I used canned)

Directions

• In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the first five ingredients; add the chicken and sausage. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, place potatoes in a large microwave-safe bowl. Cover and microwave on high for 6-8 minutes or until almost tender, stirring twice.
• Drain and discard marinade. On metal or soaked wooden skewers, alternately thread the chicken, potatoes, sausage and pineapple. Grill, covered, over medium heat for 10-15 minutes or until chicken juices run clear, turning frequently.
  
  
  

Last night I just sauteed everything with the marinade since I didn't have time to marinade and I added veggies and it worked really well.  I served my smashed red potatoes on the side

VERDICT: this was still just as good as the kabobs but a lot faster and easier for when you forget to defrost the chicken or are in a hurry like my life usually is.  Everyone loves the combo and the marinade is good also.
