Special Grilled Veggies Recipes

INCREDIBLE BBQ GRILLED VEGETABLES - MARINATED!

Steps:

• Place ingredients in a jar and shake well. Set aside 10 minutes+.
• Keep pieces large for easy handling on the BBQ (so you don't have to turn hundreds of pieces!) and so they don't fall through the grills.
• Capsicum/bell peppers - cut the "walls" off, then cut each each on the diagonal into fairly large pieces.
• Onion (Note 4) - keep the root end (hairy end!) in tact. Peel, cut in half, then cut into wedges through the root end.
• Brush BBQ grills lightly with oil, then preheat to high. Or oven 250°C/480°F.
• Place vegetables in a very large bowl or use a big tray. Drizzle with oil, sprinkle with salt, pepper and garlic. Toss with hands (there is no better way!).
• Place on BBQ and cook until tender crisp with charred edges - cook times below. Then remove into large bowl.
• Asparagus, zucchini - grill 2 min each side. (Oven - 10 min, no flipping)
• Capsicum, mushroom, onion - grill 3 min each side (oven 15 min, flip at 10 min)
• Eggplant - grill 4 min each side. Jab in middle to ensure soft but not soggy! (oven 18 min)
• While vegetables are still hot, drizzle over Dressing and toss.
• Set aside 10 minutes+ before serving, sprinkled with parsley. See in post for serving ideas.

GRILLED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Place a grill pan over medium-high heat or prepare the barbecue (medium-high heat). Brush the vegetables with 1/4 cup of the oil to coat lightly. Sprinkle the vegetables with salt and pepper. Working in batches, grill the vegetables until tender and lightly charred all over, about 8 to 10 minutes for the bell peppers; 7 minutes for the yellow squash, zucchini, eggplant, and mushrooms; 4 minutes for the asparagus and green onions. Arrange the vegetables on a platter. The key to getting those great grill marks is to not shift the vegetables too frequently once they've been placed on the hot grill.
• Meanwhile, whisk the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, parsley, basil, and rosemary in a small bowl to blend. Add salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle the herb mixture over the vegetables. Serve the vegetables, warm or at room temperature.

BEST GRILLED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium-high heat (375 to 450 degrees Fahrenheit).
• Cut the vegetables. Toss them with 2 tablespoon olive oils and 1 teaspoon kosher salt. Add the vegetables directly to the grates and cook for 14 to 17 minutes, turning every few minutes as grill marks appear. When vegetables are tender, remove them to a bowl (if any pieces start to char early, remove to a bowl while remaining cook).
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl mix together 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt with the balsamic vinegar, grated garlic and fresh rosemary. Once all the vegetables are cooked, pour the sauce onto the vegetables and toss. Serve immediately.
