Ingredients

Cooking spray
12 ounces fully cooked Italian-style poultry sausage, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/2 cup lightly packed fresh basil
1 12-ounce jar roasted red peppers, drained, rinsed and cut into 1-inch pieces
2/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces if large
1 14-ounce can artichoke hearts, drained and quartered

Directions

Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat; mist with cooking spray. Add the sausage; cook, turning 2 or 3 times, until warmed through and browned, about 8 minutes.

Thread 1 small or 1/2 large basil leaf onto a small wooden skewer. Add a piece of roasted red pepper, sun-dried tomato, artichoke and sausage, arranging them on the skewer so that it can stand up on the sausage end. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make about two-dozen skewers.

Absolutely wonderful
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I saw this recipe and thought it looked really good even though I'm not a sun-dried tomato fan. I made this for a tailgating... party this past weekend and they were a big hit. Everyone loved them and I got several requests for the recipe. It's easy to change or add ingredients as well. Thank you, Ellie. This recipe is a keeper and will be used again & again.Read more

Eye catching and delicious!

These flew off the tray! I would definately recommend cooking the sausage whole, then slicing. Some didn't want to stand up.... Try these, you won't be sorry! Read more

Made these today for a baby shower. They were a big hit and so pretty! They look much more impressive than they actually... are and taste great. I added small balls of fresh mozzerella and they were awesome!Read more

Nice and easy!

I made it today for my Birthday Party, it turned out nice. I don't use canned food, so I roasted peppers myself, I am sure it... tasted even better. Thanks so much for such a nice party idea!Read more

One change to make
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I thought this recipe was RIGHT ON!!! It had great taste and was simple to make. I did make one change however. I premade... the skewers minus the sausage. I cooked the sausage in the skillet and transported it in some foil. When I got to the party I heated the sausage back up in the oven for about 10 minutes. I cut the sausages and added them to the skewers. It was perfect. I definitely recommend this recipe!!!Read more

It's a keeper!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I served this antipasto during a wine tasting party. They're really easy to make and to assemble. My guests not only raved... about the presentation but the combination of flavors. I had to repeat the ingredients several times for those who asked for the recipe. I used sweet Italian sausage, but omitted it for my vegetarian friends. Despite not having the flavor of the sausage, the vegetarians enjoyed the combination of fresh flavors from the veggies. I will definitely keep this recipe in my list of party foods.Read more
