GRILLED ZUCCHINI, ONIONS, AND RED PEPPERS



Grilled Zucchini, Onions, and Red Peppers image

This is a great recipe to use up all those vegetables that are coming in from the garden about now. Plus, I love to grill, and this just makes it easier to make a complete meal on the grill. These are also good in a pita with garlic mayo or tzatziki sauce! **Prep time does not include the time to get the grill ready for grilling!

Time 23m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 zucchini
2 red bell peppers
1 large vidalia onion (sweet onion)
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 garlic clove, chopped
1/8 cup fresh basil, chopped
1/8 cup fresh oregano, chopped
1 1/4 tablespoons Cavenders All Purpose Greek Seasoning

Steps:

  • Trim the ends off the zucchini. Cut them in half lengthwise and then cut them into quarters.
  • Trim, core, and stem the red bell peppers. Cut them into four equal parts from top down.
  • Peel the onion and lay it on its side. Cut it inot 1/4 to 1/2 inch circles, being careful to keep the concentric layers in place.
  • Place the zucchini, onions, and bell peppers in a shallow baking sheet. Combine the olive oil and balsamic vinegar and drizzle over the vegetables. Sprinkle the chopped garlic, basil, and oregano over the top. Add the Cavendar's Greek Seasoning to taste.
  • Place the vegetables on a hot grill with tongs. (If you'd like you can use a grilling basket to keep from losing any of the vegetables through the grill!).
  • Cook on both sides for 2 to 3 minutes (or until they are marked) over a medium hot grill. Brush the vegetables with any remaining oil/vinegar mix when you turn them.
  • Serve hot or cold!

Time 30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Kosher salt
1 cup Israeli couscous
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Freshly ground pepper
1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
2 red bell peppers, halved lengthwise
1 medium zucchini, halved lengthwise
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 15-ounce can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
3/4 cup green goddess dressing (see directions)

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill to medium high. Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the couscous and cook until just tender, about 8 minutes. Drain and transfer to a large bowl; toss with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  • Meanwhile, soak the red onion in a small bowl of hot water, 10 minutes. Toss the bell peppers and zucchini in a large bowl with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, the cumin, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Grill the vegetables, turning once, until well marked and tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a plate and let cool to room temperature. Cut the peppers into 1-inch pieces and slice the zucchini into half-moons.
  • Drain the onion and add to the couscous along with the bell peppers, zucchini and chickpeas. Add the dressing and toss; season with salt and pepper.
  • Combine 1/2 cup each mayonnaise and sour cream, 1/3 cup each chopped parsley and chives, and 1/4 cup chopped tarragon in a blender. Add 2 anchovy fillets, 1 minced garlic clove, 1 tablespoon capers, the juice of 1 lemon, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and a few grinds of pepper; puree until smooth. (Makes 1 1/2 cups.)

GRILLED PEPPERS AND ZUCCHINI



Grilled Peppers and Zucchini image

This versatile side dish is so simple and quick that I had to share it. Grilling the colorful veggies in a foil packet means one less dish to wash, but I sometimes stir-friy the mixture on the stovetop. -Karen Anderson, Fair Oaks, California

GRILLED CILANTRO-LIME SCALLOPS WITH ZUCCHINI AND COUSCOUS



Grilled Cilantro-Lime Scallops with Zucchini and Couscous image

Aleppo pepper, also known as a Halaby pepper, is named after a city in northern Syria that is famous for its chiles. These pepper flakes have a mild, almost tangy flavor and are about half as spicy as most chile flakes. Combined with lime, cilantro and garlic, the Aleppo pepper really shines slathered over scallops and zucchini before they are grilled. The bright, herby, tangy sauce for this recipe acts as a marinade for the scallops and vegetables, a dressing for the couscous and a finishing sauce.

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small yellow onion, chopped small
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup pearled Israeli couscous
1 small red bell pepper, chopped small
2 cups chicken broth
1 small bunch cilantro, stems and leaves
Juice and zest of 2 limes
3 cloves garlic
1 teaspoon Aleppo pepper, plus more for garnish
1 small zucchini (about 4 ounces), sliced into 1/2-inch-thick half-moons
1 small yellow squash (about 6 ounces), sliced into 1/2-inch-thick half-moons
16 large sea scallops (about 1 1/2 pounds), patted dry

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onions, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are softened, 6 to 7 minutes. Add the couscous and cook, stirring a few times, until starting to turn golden brown, about 3 minutes. Add the red bell pepper and broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, until the couscous is softened, and the liquid has been absorbed, 12 to 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine the cilantro, lime juice, garlic, Aleppo pepper, 1 teaspoon salt, a few grinds of black pepper and the remaining 2/3 cup olive oil to a food processor and process until smooth and vibrant green. Reserve 1/3 cup and pour the rest into a large bowl.
  • Add the zucchini and the yellow squash to the bowl and toss to coat with the sauce. Thread 7 to 8 pieces, alternating between zucchini and yellow squash, onto each of 4 skewers, threading them so the slices will lay flat on the grill. Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Add the scallops to the bowl and toss with the marinade. Set aside while you grill the vegetables.
  • Grill the vegetables until grill marks appear on the underside and the vegetables begin to soften, 6 to 7 minutes. Flip and grill until the vegetables are cooked through, 6 to 7 minutes longer.
  • Meanwhile, thread 4 scallops each onto 4 skewers so that the scallops lay flat. Season with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Grill until caramelized on one side, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook until the scallops are just firm to touch and opaque in the center, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Stir 3 tablespoons of the reserved cilantro-lime sauce into the couscous and spoon the couscous onto a platter. Place the vegetable and scallop skewers on top and garnish with lime zest and Aleppo pepper. Serve with the remaining cilantro-lime sauce on the side.

Grilled Zucchini and Bell Pepper Couscous image

Categories     Side     Bell Pepper     Zucchini     Summer     Couscous     Gourmet     Dairy Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     No Sugar Added     Kosher

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound zucchini (about 3 medium)
1 small red bell pepper
1 teaspoon olive oil
2 small garlic cloves
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
1/2 cup chicken broth
3/4 cup water
3/4 cup couscous

Steps:

  • Prepare grill.
  • Trim zucchini and cut each lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Quarter bell pepper lengthwise, discarding seeds, stem, and ribs. Brush zucchini with oil and grill with bell pepper on a lightly oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals until zucchini is just tender and pepper is crisp-tender, about 5 minutes on each side. (Alternatively, vegetables may be grilled in a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderately high heat.) Cut zucchini into 1-inch-wide pieces and cut bell pepper into 1/4-inch-wide strips.
  • Mince garlic and mash to a paste with salt. In a dry 1 1/2-quart heavy saucepan toast cumin seeds over moderately low heat, swirling pan occasionally, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add broth and water and bring to a boil. Add couscous and immediately cover pan. Remove pan from heat and let couscous stand 5 minutes. With a fork fluff couscous and in a bowl toss with vegetables, garlic paste, and salt to taste.
