GRILLED VEGGIES THAT BITE BACK



Grilled Veggies That Bite Back image

I was craving grilled vegetables one day, and as usual all the recipes I found didn't quite fit the bill or what I had in my fridge. So I came up with this. In proper portions it serves 6-8 but it was so yummy I couldn't stop eating and finished it all myself. Veggies are healthy, right? ;) I think it would be nice in a quinoa or couscous salad too. This is actually quite good served cool too. Prep time does not include marinating time.

Time 30m

Yield 3 cups, approx., 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup chili paste, I use Rooster Brand Chili Garlic Sauce
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons liquid honey, I prefer unpasteurized
1/2 red bell pepper
1/2 orange bell pepper
1/2 yellow bell pepper
1/2 red onion
1/2 zucchini
1/2 cup cremini mushroom (or your favourite)
1/2 cup fresh green beans
1 tablespoon canola oil

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, mix first three ingredients well and set aside.
  • Cut all the veggies into about 1 - 1 1/2 inch pieces, green beans can just be cut in half.
  • Add vegetables to a large bowl and pour sauce over and mix well.
  • Marinate veggies at room temperature for 20 - 30 minutes, or more, or less, or not at all if you don't have time :).
  • Meanwhile, preheat BBQ to about 350°F and coat grill basket with canola oil (or olive oil or Pam cooking spray).
  • Place marinated veg in grill basket and grill until golden, about 6-8 min, then flip and do other side.
  • (Do not turn lots, grill should be low enough to not burn. All grills are different, better to turn it down than flip too often).
  • Serve with your favourite grilled meat or grilled tofu for the vegetarians ....
  • Enjoy!
