We’re talking about a mouthwatering medley of seasonal veggies, kissed by the flames of the grill and infused with irresistible flavor. It’s veggie magic, my friends.
So, what do you need to whip up these delectable delights? Here’s the lowdown:
Ingredients:
Cherry tomatoes
Button mushrooms
Bell peppers (red, yellow, green – mix it up for extra pizzazz!)
Zucchini
Red onion
Olive oil
Balsamic vinegar
Garlic powder
Dried oregano
Salt and pepper
Instructions:
Start by soaking wooden skewers in water for about 30 minutes to prevent them from burning on the grill. Safety first, folks!
While your skewers are soaking, chop your veggies into bite-sized chunks. Get creative and mix and match your favorites – the more colors, the merrier!
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and pepper to make a simple marinade.
Thread your veggies onto the skewers, alternating colors for maximum visual appeal. Don’t forget to leave a little space between each veggie to ensure even cooking.
Brush the skewers generously with the marinade, making sure to coat all sides of the veggies.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Place your skewers on the grill and cook for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the veggies are tender and slightly charred.
Once your skewers are done grilling, transfer them to a serving platter and prepare to be amazed by the vibrant colors and irresistible aroma.
And there you have it – Grilled Vegetable Skewers that are sure to steal the show at your next summer soirée! Serve them as a side dish alongside your favorite grilled meats, or make them the star of the show for a deliciously satisfying vegetarian feast.
So, what are you waiting for? Grab your grill, gather your veggies, and get ready to take your taste buds on a tantalizing trip to Veggie Heaven. Happy grilling, friends!
Until next time, keep on cooking and enjoying the flavors of summer!
