Categories     side-dish

Time 40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 red bell peppers, seeded and halved
3 yellow squash (about 1 pound total), sliced lengthwise into 1/2-inch-thick rectangles
3 zucchini (about 12 ounces total), sliced lengthwise into 1/2-inch-thick rectangles
3 Japanese eggplant (12 ounces total), sliced lengthwise into 1/2-inch-thick rectangles
12 cremini mushrooms
1 bunch (1-pound) asparagus, trimmed
12 green onions, roots cut off
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon chopped fresh Italian parsley leaves
1 teaspoon chopped fresh basil leaves
1/2 teaspoon finely chopped fresh rosemary leaves

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.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Vegetables: Select vegetables that grill well and have a variety of colors and textures. Good options include zucchini, bell peppers, mushrooms, onions, and cherry tomatoes. Avoid vegetables that are too delicate, such as leafy greens or tomatoes.
  • Cut Vegetables Evenly: Cut the vegetables into uniform pieces so that they cook evenly. This will help prevent some pieces from burning while others remain undercooked.
  • Marinate the Vegetables: Marinating the vegetables in a mixture of olive oil, herbs, and spices will add flavor and help them stay moist during grilling.
  • Preheat the Grill: Preheat the grill to medium-high heat before adding the vegetables. This will help create grill marks and prevent the vegetables from sticking.
  • Grill the Vegetables: Grill the vegetables in a single layer, turning them occasionally, until they are tender and slightly charred. The cooking time will vary depending on the type of vegetable.
  • Season the Vegetables: Once the vegetables are cooked, season them with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings.
  • Serve the Vegetables: Serve the vegetables immediately as a side dish or main course. They can also be used as a topping for salads, pasta dishes, or pizzas.
