This month for my little get together with my Blogger friends, we decided to share the perfect Kabob or Skewer Recipe.

I chose Italian Antipasto Skewers, because I love appetizers and who doesn’t love to nibble on a fresh antipasto skewer while your burger or if you are lucky, your steak is cooking on the grill.

What appetizers I was going to make was quite simple, I would choose ones with fresh ingredients and the ones we loved the most.

How to make Antipasto Skewers:

For the Caprese Skewers I used cherry tomatoes, fresh mozzarella mini balls and fresh basil. I  tossed the tomatoes and mozzarella in a little olive oil, oregano and salt. Then I threaded first a cherry tomato, then a mozzarella ball, and a fresh basil leaf onto 7 inch (18cm) Wooden Skewers.

To make the Melon skewers, I made melon balls with this Tool and I sliced slim slices of Prosciutto di Parma and folded it fan style. Again I used 7 inch wooden skewers, I first added a melon ball, then prosciutto, a fresh mozzarella ball, prosciutto, melon and prosciutto.

For the third appetizer I decided to use one of my favourite grilled veggies, zucchini. I grilled thin slices of zucchini, then I spread it with a creamy Ricotta dip (recipe below) and topped it with a thin slice of Prosciutto do Parma, you could also use cooked Ham if you prefer. I rolled them up and threaded 3 onto a wooden skewer.

Of course these Skewers are very adaptable, if you prefer longer sticks and more on the skewers, then that’s good too.

Can the Skewers be made in advance?

Yes they can, just be sure to cover them in plastic and refrigerate, bring them to room temperature about 30 minutes before serving. If you prefer you can serve them straight from the fridge. Give them a little drizzle of olive oil before serving.
