Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium zucchini
- 1 large red bell pepper
- 1 large yellow bell pepper
- 1 medium eggplant
- 1 bunch asparagus
- 1 large red onion
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Wash all vegetables thoroughly. Cut the zucchini into thick slices, the bell peppers into quarters discarding the seeds, slice the eggplant into rounds, trim the ends off the asparagus, and cut the onion into thick rings.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, oregano, sea salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well blended.
Add the sliced vegetables to the bowl and toss until all pieces are evenly coated with the marinade.
Let the vegetables sit in the marinade for about 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Place the vegetables on the preheated grill, being careful not to overcrowd. Grill the vegetables for about 3-4 minutes on each side, until they are tender and have nice grill marks.
Transfer the grilled vegetables to a serving platter and serve immediately.
