---|---|
¼ | cup red wine vinegar |
2 | tablespoons honey |
1 | tablespoon fresh lemon juice |
1 | teaspoon Worcestershire sauce |
½ | teaspoon salt |
½ | teaspoon fresh ground black pepper |
½ | cup good olive oil |
Fresh garden or farmers market vegetables of choice | |
Variety of herbs: fresh Italian parsley, snipped rosemary, thyme, oregano, etc. | |
6-8 cloves smashed garlic, or more - to your personal taste | |
Red Wine Vinaigrette (recipe below) | |
Heavy duty foil, large serving bowl, a good extra virgin olive oil, salt & ground pepper. | |
Note: a grill basket with the foil placed inside works nicely, if you have one. |
Instructions

2. | Prepare the Vegetables: Wash and drain the vegetables, then cut them into uniform desired sized pieces. Smash garlic cloves and snip rosemary, Italian parsley, or other desired herbs. |
3. | Season and Grill the Vegetables: Season the vegetables with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then place them on a large piece of heavy foil. Create a pouch by crimping the edges, allowing the vegetables to marinate while preparing the grill. |
4. | Preheat the Grill: Light the coals and mound them on one side of the grate. Keep the bottom vents open until the coals are covered in a light gray ash. Adjust the vents and place the vegetable pouch on the grill opposite the fire for indirect heat. |
5. | Grill to Perfection: Cook the vegetables until crisp-tender, tossing occasionally. The cooking time may vary based on grill heat, foil thickness, and vegetable quantity. |
6. | Toss in Vinaigrette: Rub a large bowl with a garlic clove, then transfer the grilled vegetables into the bowl. Toss with the prepared vinaigrette until well coated. |
7. | Serve or Chill: Cover the bowl of vegetables and vinaigrette until ready to serve, or chill for at least 4 hours for enhanced flavors. |
