Lemongrass-Skewered Quail Sausage
- 1 (2-pound) package Uncle Johns Quail Sausage, regular or jalapeno
- 10 fresh lemongrass stalks
- Grill or pan-fry the sausage according to package directions.
- While the sausage cools, wash the lemongrass and remove the outer leaf.
- Slice each stalk lengthwise into 4 skewers.
- Cut each cooked sausage crosswise on the diagonal into 6 equal slices.
- Using a metal or bamboo skewer, drill holes in the sides of the sausage to make it easier to insert the lemongrass.
- Insert the lemongrass stalks, arrange the sausage skewers on a platter, and serve warm or at room temperature.
- The sausage can be cooked early in the day and refrigerated.
- Warm up the links in a 325F oven for about 15 minutes, slice, and place on skewers.
- Serve warm or at room temperature.
- Sturdy stalks of lemongrass make the best skewers.
- Look for lemongrass at farmers markets and Asian markets.
- Ive also found high-quality lemongrass at upscale grocery stores such as Whole Foods and Central Market.
- Uncle Johns sausage can be found at selected Hill Country farmers markets or from www.unclejohnsquailsausage.com.
