brochette
Food on stick
A brochette is a small skewer used for grilling or serving food, or the food cooked on such a skewer—meat, vegetables, or seafood threaded together: lamb brochettes with rosemary.
The word is French and appears most often on menus and in culinary contexts, functioning as a slightly more elegant synonym for kebab.
