4 Italian sausages (about 1 lb/500 g)
2 tbsp (25 mL) extra-virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
Pinch each salt and pepper
1 baguette (8-inch/20 cm), cut into 1-inch (2.5 cm) cubes
Half red onion, cut into 1-inch (2.5 cm) cubes
Preparation:
Prick sausages with fork. Place on microwaveable plate; cover and microwave at high until no longer pink, about 5 minutes. (Make-ahead: Refrigerate until cold; wrap and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.) Cut into 1-1/2-inch (4 cm) pieces.
Meanwhile, in bowl, whisk together oil, garlic, salt and pepper. Alternately thread sausage, bread cubes and onion onto metal or soaked wooden skewers; brush bread with oil mixture.
Place skewers on greased grill over medium heat; close lid and grill, turning three times, until crisped, browned and onion is tender, about 10 minutes.
