Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium Zucchini
- 1 large Red bell pepper
- 1 large Yellow bell pepper
- 1 large Red onion
- 20 pieces Cherry tomatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 10 pieces Skewers
- 1 cup Plain yogurt
- 0.5 cup Fresh mint leaves
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt (for sauce)
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper (for sauce)
Instructions
Preheat the grill or oven to 400°F (200°C). If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 15 minutes to prevent burning.
Cut the zucchini, red bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, and red onion into evenly sized, bite-sized pieces. Aim for pieces roughly 1 inch in size.
Place the zucchini, bell peppers, and onion pieces in a large bowl. Add the cherry tomatoes.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and ground black pepper.
Pour the marinade over the vegetables and gently toss until all pieces are well coated.
Thread the vegetables onto the skewers, alternating between zucchini, bell pepper pieces, onion, and cherry tomatoes.
Place the skewers on the grill or a baking sheet (if using an oven). Grill or bake for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and slightly charred.
While the kebabs are cooking, prepare the yogurt mint sauce. Finely chop the mint leaves and combine them with plain yogurt, lemon juice, honey, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl. Mix well.
Once the kebabs are cooked, remove them from the grill or oven. Serve hot with the yogurt mint sauce on the side for dipping.
