Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 lb kielbasa sausage, sliced Find in deli or meat section.
  • 1 lb cheese tortellini (fresh or frozen) Available in refrigerated or frozen section.
  • 2 cups bell peppers, diced
  • 1 cup red onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish
  • Grated Parmesan cheese for serving (optional)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Turn on your Blackstone grill to medium-high heat, allowing it to preheat for about 5 minutes.
  2. While the grill heats, bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the tortellini and cook according to package instructions (3-5 minutes). Drain and set aside.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the diced bell peppers, red onion, minced garlic, olive oil, Italian seasoning, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss until the vegetables are evenly coated.
Cooking
  1. Add the sliced kielbasa to the preheated grill and sear for about 3-4 minutes until browned and slightly crispy.
  2. Push the sausage to one side of the grill and add the seasoned vegetables. Grill for an additional 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until the veggies are tender and slightly charred.
  3. Add the drained tortellini to the grill and gently toss everything together, mixing all the flavors and allowing it to heat through for about 2-3 minutes.
Finishing Touches
  1. Taste the mixture and adjust seasoning if necessary.
  2. Remove from the grill, sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley, and serve immediately. Optionally, add grated Parmesan cheese for extra flavor.

Notes

To store leftovers, place in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months before adding cheese. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight before reheating.
