Creating Grilled Vegetable Kebabs with Balsamic Glaze is simple and straightforward. Follow these steps for a delicious outcome:
1. Prepare Skewers:
– If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning.
2. Chop Vegetables:
– Cut the zucchinis into thick slices, bell peppers into squares, red onion into wedges, and halve the mushrooms if large.
3. Make Marinade:
– In a bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and pepper.
4. Marinate Vegetables:
– Place the prepared vegetables in a large bowl or a zip-lock bag. Pour the balsamic marinade over them, ensuring all pieces are coated. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
5. Preheat the Grill:
– Heat your grill to medium-high heat.
6. Assemble Kebabs:
– Thread the marinated vegetables onto the skewers, alternating types for visual appeal and flavor.
7. Grill Kebabs:
– Place the kebabs on the grill and cook for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and marked with grill lines.
8. Serve:
– Remove from the grill and allow to rest for a minute. Drizzle with any remaining balsamic glaze if desired.
9. Enjoy:
– Serve hot or at room temperature, perfect alongside grilled meats, salads, or on their own.
