Tips for Grilling Vegetables and a Recipe for Grilled Vegetable Vinaigrette

Grilled vegetables are best when kept simple – allowing their true flavors to burst through. They are especially nice when tossed with a light dressing just before serving, like the basic vinaigrette below.

Grilled Vegetables Tips

1. On the grill – keep it simple.
2. Quick cooking over high heat.
3. Just salt and pepper, and a very light coating of oil on the vegetables. Excess oil will drip onto the flame causing flare ups that create a bitter soot coating.
4. Split or slice larger vegetables.
5. Cook until desired tenderness. Crisp and crunchy is good for some; full cooked and tender better for others.
6. Pull them off as they are cooked.
7. When finished, toss with the vinaigrette and let sit for a few minutes before serving.
