Preparing and Grilling the Vegetables | |
|---|---|
| 1. | In a large bowl, combine the brown sugar, sesame oil, soy sauce, minced garlic, and crushed red pepper flakes. Add the green beans, red onion, and mushrooms; toss to coat. |
| 2. | Divide the vegetables in half and place each portion on a double thickness of heavy-duty foil (about 18 inches square); fold the foil around the vegetables and seal tightly. Repeat with the remaining vegetables. |
