Step 1
Soak 8 wooden skewers in water for 20 minutes. Cut the 1.5 lb sausage into 1-inch chunks, the 2 bell peppers into 1-inch pieces, and the 1 onion into wedges.
Step 2
In a large bowl, toss the sausage, peppers, and onion with the 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp smoked paprika, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper until evenly coated.
Step 3
Thread the sausage, peppers, and onion onto the skewers, alternating pieces and leaving a small gap between each.
Step 4
Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Place the skewers on the grill and cook, turning occasionally, until the sausage is browned and the vegetables are tender with charred edges, about 10-12 minutes.
Step 5
Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for 2 minutes. Serve hot, directly on a wooden board or platter.
