Marinated Vegetable Cheese Skewers Recipes

MARINATED VEGETABLE & CHEESE SKEWERS

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium heat.
• Trim zucchini; discard ends. Use vegetable peeler to peel each zucchini into 12 thin lengthwise slices.
• Thread vegetables and cheese alternately onto 12 wooden skewers, folding each zucchini slice accordion style before threading onto skewer. Brush evenly with dressing.
• Grill 2 to 3 min. on each side or just until vegetables are heated through and tomatoes begin to blister.

SUMMER VEGETABLE SKEWERS

Steps:

• Heat the grill to high. With a colander set in the sink, lightly sprinkle the eggplant or zucchini with a little salt. Toss well and set aside for 10 minutes.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine garlic, oregano and red-pepper flakes. Whisk in oil. Pat vegetables dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels, and add to the bowl. Gently toss to coat. Let marinate while the grill heats up.
• Thread vegetables onto metal or pre-soaked bamboo skewers (see Tip), keeping the eggplant and zucchini on separate skewers, if using both vegetables. Reserve any leftover marinade at the bottom of bowl.
• When the grill is hot, add the skewers. Cook, rotating them carefully every few minutes, until evenly browned and slightly charred in places, about 7 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter. Brush with remaining marinade and squeeze a lemon wedge all over. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and serve.
