Fontina-Stuffed Meatball Kabobs
Directions
- In a large bowl combine egg, Parmesan cheese, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Add ground beef and prosciutto; mix well. Divide mixture into 16 portions. Form each portion around a Fontina cheese cube to make a meatball. On sixteen 8- to 10-inch skewers,* thread meatballs, artichokes, mushrooms, and tomatoes, leaving 1/4 inch between pieces. Prepare Balsamic Glaze; set aside.
- For charcoal grill or gas grill, grill kabobs on the greased rack of a covered grill directly over medium heat for 10 to 12 minutes or until meat is done (160 degrees F), turning once and brushing with half of the Balsamic Glaze halfway through grilling.
- To serve, drizzle kabobs with the remaining glaze and, if desired, garnish with basil.
