Ingredients

18 bay leaves
1 1/2 medium-size onions, cut into 18 wedges
6 links sweet Italian sausage, each cut in 3 pieces
1 juice orange, unpeeled, cut in 12 chunks
2 tablespoons fruity extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

Soak 12 8-to 10-inch wooden skewers and the bay leaves in tepid water for 30 minutes. Drain.
Preheat a charcoal or gas grill.
Hold two skewers parallel to each other about a half-inch apart. Place a piece of onion, a bay leaf, a piece of sausage and a piece of orange on the two skewers, repeating the ingredients in this order and ending with a piece of sausage. There should be three pieces of sausage per double skewer.
Brush each skewer with olive oil, and place on the hot grill. Cook, turning occasionally, until the sausage is browned and the oranges and onions slightly charred, about 20 minutes.
