Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large caps Portobello mushrooms
- 2 whole Red bell peppers
- 2 medium Zucchini
- 4 ears Corn on the cob
- 1 cup Chimichurri sauce
- 4 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 whole, sliced Lemon
- 0.5 cup, chopped Flat-leaf parsley
- 2 cloves, minced Garlic
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium heat.
Clean the portobello mushroom caps by gently wiping them with a damp cloth and then remove the stems.
Slice the red bell peppers into quarters and remove the seeds.
Cut the zucchini lengthwise into thick slices, about 1/2 inch thick.
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika.
Brush the mixed olive oil onto the portobello mushrooms, red bell peppers, and zucchini slices.
Place the corn on the cob, mushroom caps, bell pepper slices, and zucchini on the grill.
Grill the vegetables, turning occasionally, until they have nice grill marks and are tender. This should take about 20-25 minutes. The corn may take slightly longer.
Toward the end of grilling, squeeze lemon slices over the vegetables to add brightness and a hint of acidity.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine chimichurri sauce, minced garlic, and chopped parsley. Set aside.
Once the vegetables are grilled, transfer them to a serving platter.
Drizzle or serve the chimichurri sauce on the side for your guests to add as they prefer.
Serve hot and enjoy your Vegan Argentinian Asado with crusty bread or a side salad.
