Sausage & Chicken Kabobs

We had this for supper last night. It was very very good. It's from Simple & Delicious June/July 2010. Seems like many of my recipes lately have included smoked sausage. We are on a kick with it, I guess. It's just so so yummy.

Sausage & Chicken Kabobs
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 tbsp worcestershire sauce
1 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp pepper
1/8 tsp seasoned salt
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cut into 1 1/2 inch cubes
1 lb 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
Ranch salad dressing, optional

In a large ziploc bag, combine first 5 ingredients. Add chicken and sausage. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for 1 hour. Meanwhile, place potatoes in 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 (so they don't catch on fire) 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. Serve with ranch dressing. 8 servings.

I only soaked 6 skewers, then ended up with leftover stuff, so I just fried that in a small frying pan and Steve can have it for leftovers. Steve, Sam and I REALLY liked these. They were so so good. Nathan and Emma didn't like how there was some black stuff on them from the grill. I offered to make these on the George Foreman grill but Steve was willing to put them outside, and that's easier clean up for me ha ha. So this is definitely one to keep, it was really so so good. You should try it. Oh also I bought fresh pineapple for this recipe, but it went bad before I could use it. That was a bummer since it cost $4. It was only on the counter for a few days. Oh well. So we had to use canned pineapple chunks but it was still fine.
