Categories     side-dish

Time 1h25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

12 medium carrots, quartered lengthwise
11 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt
1 tablespoon ground cumin
2 red bell peppers, halved and seeded
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
2 large leeks, ends trimmed
14 to 16 sprigs flat-leaf parsley
1 jalapeno, seeded and halved
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
1 medium orange, juiced
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill to medium-high.
  • Drizzle the carrots on a baking sheet with 2 tablespoons olive oil. Sprinkle evenly with salt and use a small strainer to sprinkle evenly with the cumin. Arrange the bell pepper halves cut-side up next to the carrots, then drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil, sprinkle with salt and sift with paprika.
  • Cut the outer layer off the leeks and trim and discard 2 inches off the top. Split the leeks lengthwise and rinse the dirt out from the inside layers. Wipe dry and keep them in intact halves. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
  • Grill the vegetables (leeks and peppers cut-side down) in a single layer in a medium-hot area of the grill. Close the lid and cook until you see liquid emerge, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn everything on its second side, then close the lid and cook until the peppers are tender but still hold their shape, 5 to 8 more minutes.
  • Move the peppers to a cooler or foiled area of the grill, then close the lid and let the carrots and leeks continue to cook until tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, an additional 5 to 8 minutes.
  • Season the parsley in a bowl with 1 tablespoon olive oil and a pinch of salt. Place the parsley on a medium-hot part of the grill and cook until fairly charred, 10 to 12 minutes. Chop the parsley finely. Drizzle the jalapeno with 1 tablespoon olive oil and grill until charred, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove the jalapeno from the grill and coarsely chop.
  • Combine the red wine vinegar, brown sugar and orange juice in a medium bowl until the sugar dissolves. Whisk in the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil, the mustard, parsley and jalapeno. Taste for seasoning.
  • Place the leeks on a flat surface and cut each half into 3 even pieces. Cut the peppers in half again. Arrange the carrots, peppers and leeks on a serving platter and top with the dressing.

Tips:

  • Choose the right vegetables: Not all vegetables are created equal when it comes to grilling. Some, like asparagus, zucchini, and bell peppers, hold up well on the grill and develop a nice charred flavor. Others, like tomatoes and mushrooms, are more delicate and may need to be pre-cooked or wrapped in foil before grilling.
  • Prepare your vegetables properly: Before grilling, wash your vegetables thoroughly and cut them into uniform pieces. This will help them cook evenly. You can also marinate your vegetables in a mixture of olive oil, herbs, and spices to add flavor.
  • Heat your grill to the right temperature: The ideal temperature for grilling vegetables is between 350 and 400 degrees Fahrenheit. This will help them cook quickly and evenly without burning.
  • Use a non-stick grill mat: A non-stick grill mat can help prevent your vegetables from sticking to the grill grates. This is especially important for delicate vegetables like tomatoes and mushrooms.
  • Flip your vegetables regularly: Once you've placed your vegetables on the grill, be sure to flip them regularly so that they cook evenly. This will help them develop a nice charred flavor on all sides.

Conclusion:

Grilled vegetables are a delicious and healthy side dish or main course. They're packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, and they can be prepared in a variety of ways. By following these tips, you can grill vegetables that are perfectly cooked and full of flavor.
