KETO Grilled Cajun Sausage & Chicken Skewers

 

Grilled Cajun Sausage & Chicken
Servings: 3

12 oz. Cajun Hollar Brand Andouille Sausage
12 oz Real Good Lightly Breaded Chicken Nuggets
1/2 cup Tony Chachere's Injectables Butter Marinade

Everything is pre-cooked so this is a quick one! In a bowl, combine the chicken nuggets and marinade. Stir to coat all nuggets evenly and let soak. Stir every couple minutes to make sure they're nice and coated. Don't worry about the coating falling off, enough will stay adhered to give the nuggest a beautiful texture. Preheat grill while chicken in marinating. 

Slice the sausage into nice thick chunks to make them easy to skewer. Once the grill is heated, quickly skewer the sausage and chicken, alternating every other piece. Once all skewers are assembled, brush the marinade left in the bowl over the entire skewer, flipping to get both sides. The breading from the chicken that came off while marinating adds a nice texture to the sausage as well! Use as much marinade as you'd like to completely cover the skewers and bring out the flavor of the andouille, it's sugar free, carb free, calorie free! 

Grill the skewers until heated through and there are some pretty grill marks on the sausage. Enjoy plain or use the dipping sauce of your choice! I made a simple remoulade with mayonnaise, lemon juice, mustard and Cajun seasoning.

Living the Vanlife, we try to use the grill as much as possible. Simple meals are the best since we're usually out exploring and discovering the area we're in. This one took me about 15 minutes to get all prepped, including clean up, and ready to grill. They were only on the grill about 5-8 minutes and we were ready to eat! After a day in downtown Houston in 90 degree heat, it was perfect to not add any heat inside the van! 

We found the Cajun Hollar Brand Andouille in Texas at H.E.B and knew we had to try it! It has amazing flavor that would hold up well to a good smoking so we'll definitely be trying it again! The Real Good Lightly Breaded Chicken Nuggets are that "special" treat for us as the ingredients aren't as clean as we'd like! The simplicity of them is perfect for days I'm not feeling the kitchen vibe!
