Ingredients

  • 9 ounces cheese tortellini
  • 8 ounces fresh mozzarella pearls
  • 4 ounces Genoa salami, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup pitted kalamata olives
  • 1/2 cup pimiento -stuffed olives
  • 1/2 cup marinated artichoke hearts, quartered
  • 1/4 cup Italian vinaigrette dressing
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, minced
  • 24 6 -inch bamboo skewers

Instructions

  • Cook the cheese tortellini in a large pot of salted boiling water until al dente, approximately 7 to 9 minutes.
  • Drain the tortellini and rinse with cold water until cooled completely to prevent sticking and further cooking.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, toss the cooled tortellini with the Italian vinaigrette until evenly coated.
  • Fold each salami slice into quarters to create a layered texture for threading.
  • Thread the ingredients onto each bamboo skewer in the following sequence: one cherry tomato, one folded salami slice, one marinated tortellini, one mozzarella pearl, one olive, and one artichoke heart quarter.
  • Transfer the completed skewers to a secondary platter and ensure they are arranged in a single layer.
  • Garnish with minced parsley and serve at room temperature or chilled.
