Grilled shish kebabs with Merguez



4 Merquez sausages* cut into inch long pieces
2 onions, halved then quartered
1 red pepper, rinsed and seeded, cut into 1 inch pieces
2 slender zucchini, sliced into 1/2 inch thick rounds
4 skewers

Start the grill and get some coals going.

Skewer the veggies and sausage, alternating to get a nice mixture on each. Don't pack them too tightly. - just touching is good.

Grill the kebabs, rotating to cook evenly, until the veggies start to soften a little and the edges are nicely done.

*Merguez is a sausage originating from North Africa that is made from lamb or beef, paprika, cayenne, or harissa, a hot chili paste that gives it a red color.
