Photo: Salami, Mozzarella and Basil-Tomato Skewers Recipe
Ingredients
- 12 bamboo skewers
- 24 cherry tomatoes
- 24 basil leaves
- 12 ounces salami, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 12 ounces smoked mozzarella, cut into 1-inch cubes
- Olive oil
- Freshly cracked black pepper
Directions
Soak skewers in water for 30 minutes. Preheat grill or broiler on low heat.
Wrap each tomato with a basil leaf.
On each skewer, thread a cube of salami, a cube of mozzarella and a basil-wrapped cherry tomato. Repeat with additional salami, mozzarella, and tomato.
Place the skewers on a baking sheet. Broil 4 to 5 inches from heat about 1 minute or until just warm. (If grilling, place them on the grill over low heat, or as the coals are burning down, for 1 to 2 minutes, turning once.) Watch skewers carefully so that the cheese softens a little but does not melt.
Arrange skewers on a serving platter. Drizzle with oil and sprinkle with cracked pepper. Serve warm.

Delicious, Bobby! I served these on the hottest day of the summer so far and didn't bother to fire up the grill. They were so good as is...the freshness of the ingredients did all the talking. Thank-you!

This is an amazing, quick and easy recipe! The only thing I added to it was a sprinkle of balsamic glaze with the olive oil!

I had a dinner party and everything was served on a stick! This was the real hit of the evening. The key to this is the good salami. I made them up ahead of time so that were in the frig for about 30 minutes. We grilled them and the flavor of the salami went into the cheese! I have made them up since just for eating.
