Here is a great grilled veggie recipe that will amp up any summer time meal!
INGREDIENTS
3 yellow squash, sliced lengthwise into 1/2-inch thick strips
3 small eggplant, sliced lengthwise into 1/2-inch thick strips
1 bunch (1-pound) asparagus, trimmed
You can also use zucchini, bell peppers, onions or other vegetables of your choice.
Dressing:
1/4 cup plus 2 Tablespoons olive oil
Salt (to taste)
Freshly ground pepper (to taste)
3 Tablespoons lemon juice
2 teaspoons minced garlic
Chopped herbs and seasoning blend of your choice. (In this recipe we used a citrus seasoning blend and thyme.)
DIRECTIONS
- Place a grill pan over medium-high heat or prepare the barbecue.
- Brush the vegetables with 1/4 cup of the oil until coated lightly.
- Sprinkle the vegetables with salt and pepper.
- Working in batches, grill the vegetables until tender and lightly charred all over (about 7 minutes for the yellow squash and eggplant and 4 minutes for the asparagus) Note: The key to getting those great grill marks is to not shift the vegetables too frequently once they’re placed on the grill.
- While the vegetables are grilling, whisk the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil, lemon juice, garlic, and thyme in a small bowl with salt and pepper (to taste).
- Arrange the grilled vegetables on a platter.
- Drizzle the herb mixture over the vegetables.
