Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium Zucchini
- 1 large Red bell pepper
- 1 large Yellow bell pepper
- 1 large Red onion
- 12 pieces Button mushrooms
- 12 pieces Cherry tomatoes
- 0.25 cup Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 3 cloves, minced Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Dried basil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 8 pieces Wooden skewers
Instructions
If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent burning.
Wash and prepare the vegetables: slice the zucchini into thick rounds, cut the bell peppers into bite-sized chunks, and slice the red onion into wedges.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and black pepper to make the marinade. Stir well to combine.
Add the prepared vegetables (zucchini, bell peppers, red onion, mushrooms, and cherry tomatoes) to the bowl with the marinade. Toss until all the vegetables are evenly coated. Cover and let the vegetables marinate for at least 15 minutes (or up to 2 hours) in the refrigerator.
Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated vegetables onto the soaked skewers, alternating to create a colorful variety on each skewer.
Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and slightly charred in spots.
Remove the skewers from the grill and serve immediately as a side dish or a main course. Enjoy!
