Grilled Kielbasa with Corn Slaw

Makes 4 servings

Kielbasa is the perfect last-minute or large-crowd grilling ingredient. It comes pre-cooked, so all you have to do is heat it through, it’s good alone or on a sandwich, and it’s a universal crowd-pleaser.

Ingredients

  • Kernels from 2 ears of corn
  • 6 radishes, chopped
  • 1 jalapeño, minced
  • 2 cups diced green cabbage
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 teaspoons cider vinegar
  • 2 teaspoon spicy brown mustard
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • Kosher salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 lb kielbasa, halved length-wise

Directions

  1. In a bowl, combine the corn, radishes, jalapeño, cabbage, oil, vinegar, mustard, and honey. Toss to coat and season with salt and pepper.
  2. Preheat a grill for medium-heat cooking and oil the grill grates. Grill the kielbasa until it is browned and hot, about 2 minutes per side. Slice before serving with the corn-cabbage slaw.
