1 shallot, minced
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon white balsamic vinegar
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
½ cup extra-virgin olive oil, or more to taste
10 fresh asparagus spears, trimmed to 5 inches
2 ears corn, husked
2 zucchini, halved lengthwise
2 yellow squash, halved lengthwise
1 bunch green onions, tops trimmed a few inches
1 large red bell pepper, cut lengthwise into 4 sections and seeded
1 large red onion, sliced thickly
¼ cup olive oil, or as needed
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

Remove vegetables to the baking sheets used for preparation and cool.
  • Cut asparagus, green onions, zucchini, yellow squash, and red bell pepper crosswise into 1-inch pieces and put into a large bowl. Quarter red onion slices; add to bowl. Cut corn kernels from cobs; add to bowl. Let vegetables cool to room temperature.
  • Drizzle vinaigrette over the vegetable mixture and toss to coat.
