Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium Zucchini
- 1 large Carrot
- 1 medium Red bell pepper
- 1 medium Yellow bell pepper
- 1 small Red onion
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Red wine vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 1 clove Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Wash all the vegetables thoroughly under cool running water.
Using a sharp knife, thinly slice the zucchini, carrot, red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, and red onion into thin strips or julienne pieces.
Transfer all the sliced vegetables into a large mixing bowl.
To prepare the marinade, combine olive oil, red wine vinegar, honey, minced garlic, dried oregano, chopped fresh parsley, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl. Whisk well until the mixture is emulsified.
Pour the marinade over the sliced vegetables in the mixing bowl. Use tongs or clean hands to gently toss the vegetables, ensuring they are thoroughly coated with the marinade.
Cover the mixing bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the vegetables to an airtight container. Allow the vegetables to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to 8 hours for a stronger flavor.
Before assembling your sandwiches, allow the marinated vegetables to come to room temperature for a few minutes if they have been in the refrigerator for a long time.
Layer the marinated vegetables onto your choice of bread or rolls. Optionally, add a layer of cheese, protein, or additional condiments for a personalized touch.
Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade gourmet sandwich!
