Grilled Vegetables Skewers
Grilled Vegetable Skewers showcase a colorful combination of corn, zucchini, squash, bell pepper, onion, and mushrooms threaded onto skewers, brushed with olive oil, and simply seasoned. Grilling imparts a smoky char while maintaining the vegetables' natural texture and flavor, making an easy guide for well-cooked, vibrant veggie skewers.
Ingredients
- 1 ear corn , husk removed
- 1 zucchini
- 1 yellow summer squash
- ½ red bell pepper , seeded and cored
- ½ red onion
- 8 brown mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
Instructions
- Prepare the grill with clean grates and preheat to medium heat, 350°F to 450°F. If using wooden skewers, prepare them by soaking in water for 10 minutes. If using metal skewers, no prep is necessary.
- Cut the vegetables into ½" slices or chunks. Thread the vegetables on the skewers alternating the veggies, until you've reached the end of the skewer. Drizzle the vegetables with olive oil and sprinkle evenly with salt and pepper.
- Grill the vegetables with the lid closed until tender and lightly charred, turning every 3-5 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
