Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium zucchini
- 1 large red bell pepper
- 2 medium yellow squash
- 1 large red onion
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 pieces wooden skewers
Instructions
Soak wooden skewers in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent them from burning on the grill.
Wash and prepare the vegetables by cutting the zucchini and yellow squash into 1/2-inch thick rounds.
Cut the red bell pepper into 1-inch squares and the red onion into wedges.
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the vegetables in a large bowl and pour the marinade over them, tossing to coat well.
Thread the vegetables onto the skewers, alternating between different types to create a colorful pattern.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Place the vegetable skewers on the grill and cook for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and have a nice char.
Remove the kebabs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the keto grilled vegetable kebabs as a side dish or main course for a light and nutritious meal.
