Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large Red bell pepper
- 1 large Yellow bell pepper
- 1 medium Zucchini
- 1 large Red onion
- 12 pieces Cherry tomatoes
- 8 medium Button mushrooms
- 4 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 2 teaspoons Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 8 pieces Wooden skewers
Instructions
Soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning during grilling.
Prepare the vegetables by cutting the red and yellow bell peppers into 1-inch squares, slicing the zucchini into 1/2-inch thick rounds, and cutting the red onion into similar-sized pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, ground cumin, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Add the prepared vegetables and button mushrooms to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are well coated. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes to enhance the flavors.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Thread the marinated vegetables onto the soaked skewers. Start with a cherry tomato, followed by a piece of red bell pepper, a slice of zucchini, some red onion, and a button mushroom. Repeat until the skewer is filled, leaving space at the ends.
Place the skewers onto the preheated grill. Cook for 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the vegetables are slightly charred and cooked through.
Serve the Vegetarian Mixed Kebabs warm, directly from the grill, as a delightful entrée or side dish.
