Grilled Marinated Vegetables

Grilled Marinated Vegetables bring smoky char and bright, herbaceous notes to the table, thanks to a lemon, garlic, and basil soak that penetrates eggplant, peppers, zucchini, and mushrooms. Each bite balances tender texture with a hint of crisp edges and a clean citrus finish. Serve as a summer side, over grains, or tucked into wraps for backyard dinners and picnics.

Grilled Marinated Vegetables
  1. 1

    Put the eggplant, bell peppers, zucchinis, and mushrooms in a large bowl.

  2. 2

    In a medium bowl, whisk the olive oil, lemon juice, basil, and garlic until well combined. Pour the mixture over the vegetables and toss to coat. Cover the bowl and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.

  3. 3

    Preheat an outdoor grill to high heat and lightly oil the grate.

  4. 4

    Arrange the vegetables on skewers or place them directly on the preheated grill. Cook, brushing frequently with the marinade, until they reach your preferred doneness, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
