Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 2 bell peppers, cut into chunks
- 2 zucchinis, sliced
- 1 red onion, cut into chunks
- 8 cherry tomatoes
- 8 button mushrooms
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper to make the marinade.
- Thread the bell peppers, zucchinis, red onion, cherry tomatoes, and mushrooms onto the skewers, alternating the vegetables as desired.
- Place the vegetable kebabs in a shallow dish and brush the marinade over them, making sure to coat all sides. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat or preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- If grilling, place the vegetable kebabs on the grill and cook for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and slightly charred.
- If roasting, place the vegetable kebabs on a lined baking sheet and roast for 15-20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and slightly browned.
- Serve the vegetable kebabs hot as a delicious and healthy appetizer or main course.
Vegetable kebabs have a rich history dating back to ancient times, originating in the Middle East and South Asia. These flavorful skewers of marinated and grilled vegetables have been a staple in the culinary traditions of countries like India, Iran, and Turkey for centuries. Renowned chefs like Sanjeev Kapoor and Yotam Ottolenghi have popularized vegetable kebabs in their respective regions, adding their own unique twists to the dish. Today, the best versions of vegetable kebabs can be found in authentic Indian and Middle Eastern restaurants, where the key lies in the perfect blend of spices and the grilling technique.
