Sweet Sausage, Onion and Pepper Skewers

• MAKE-AHEAD

Ingredients

1. 10 sweet Italian sausages (about 1 3/4 pounds)
2. 2 large red bell peppers, cut into 1-inch pieces
3. 1 large red onion, cut into 3/4-inch wedges, layers separated
4. California Harissa
5. Mint Yogurt Sauce

1. Light a grill or preheat the broiler. In a large saucepan of boiling water, cook the sausages over moderate heat just until firm, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain and let cool slightly. Slice each sausage diagonally into 4 equal pieces.
2. Divide the sausages and peppers and thread them onto 10 long bamboo skewers with 1 or 2 onion pieces each, alternating the ingredients and beginning and ending with the sausage. Arrange the skewers on a large platter and brush with 1/4 cup of the harissa.
3. Grill the skewers over a medium-hot fire or broil for about 8 minutes, until the sausage is cooked through and the peppers and onion are tender and slightly charred. Serve with bowls of the remaining harissa and the Mint Yogurt Sauce.
