Ingredients

• 8 pieces hot dogs
• 3 large bell peppers (mixed colors: red, yellow, green)
• 1 large red onion
• 16 pieces cherry tomatoes
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 8 pieces wooden skewers (soaked in water for 20 minutes)

Directions

Step 1

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent burning during cooking.

Step 2

Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium heat.

Step 3

Cut each hot dog into 3 equal-sized pieces.

Step 4

Wash and core the bell peppers, then cut them into 1-inch squares.

Step 5

Peel the red onion and cut it into 1-inch wedges, separating the layers slightly.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.

Step 7

Thread the ingredients onto the skewers in an alternating pattern: hot dog piece, bell pepper square, onion wedge, and cherry tomato. Repeat until each skewer is fully loaded, leaving a little space at each end for handling.

Step 8

Brush the marinade generously over the assembled kebabs, ensuring all sides are coated evenly.

Step 9

Place the kebabs on the preheated grill or grill pan. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the vegetables are slightly charred and the hot dogs are heated through.

Step 10

Remove the kebabs from the grill and serve immediately. Enjoy them as-is or alongside your favorite dipping sauces and sides!
