Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 pound small new potatoes
2 small ears corn, cut into 1 1/2-inch rounds
1/2 pound andouille, cut into 1-inch rounds
1/2 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted
4 teaspoons hot-pepper sauce, such as Tabasco
2 teaspoons Old Bay Seasoning
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • In a medium pot, bring potatoes to a boil in salted water over medium-high. Reduce heat and simmer until potatoes are tender when pierced with a knife, about 12 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water. Alternately thread potatoes, corn, andouille, and shrimp onto four 8-inch skewers.
  • Heat a grill to medium-high. Clean and lightly oil hot grill. In a small bowl, combine butter, hot-pepper sauce, and Old Bay Seasoning. Grill kebabs, turning and brushing with butter mixture occasionally, until shrimp are opaque throughout and corn is tender and beginning to char, about 8 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges.
