  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Dressing

  • 1 lemon (squeezed and zested)
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons fresh basil (finely chopped)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (finely chopped)
  • 2 garlic cloves (minced)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Vegetables

  • 1 zucchini (cut in half moons)
  • 1 red onion (cut in big pieces)
  • 12 mushroom caps (sliced)
  • 1 green bell pepper (cut in big pieces)
  • 1 eggplant (cut in half moons)
  • Fresh basil for serving

Other

  • Skewers (soaked in water for at least 15 minutes)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Skewers and Dressing: Soak the skewers in water for at least 15 minutes to prevent burning during grilling. Meanwhile, combine the lemon juice and zest, olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, chopped basil, parsley, minced garlic, salt, and pepper in a mason jar or bowl. Shake or whisk vigorously until the dressing is fully emulsified and combined.
  2. Marinate the Vegetables: Place all the cut vegetables in a large bowl. Pour half of the prepared dressing over the veggies and toss well to coat all pieces evenly. Allow them to marinate briefly while you prepare the grill.
  3. Assemble and Grill the Kabobs: Thread the marinated vegetables onto the soaked skewers, alternating veggies for a colorful presentation. Heat your grill to medium-high heat. Place the skewers on the grill and cook, turning occasionally, until the vegetables are nicely browned and tender — approximately 10-15 minutes.
  4. Serve: Remove the kabobs from the grill and arrange on a serving platter. Serve with the remaining dressing drizzled over the top and garnish with fresh basil leaves for added aroma and flavor.

Notes

  • Soaking the skewers prevents them from burning on the grill.
  • Use a grill basket if you are concerned about smaller pieces falling off the skewers.
  • Feel free to substitute or add other vegetables like cherry tomatoes or asparagus for variety.
  • For a smoky flavor, char the veggies slightly but avoid burning.
  • This recipe is naturally gluten free and vegetarian.
