Ingredients
- 1 zucchini, sliced into rounds
- 1 yellow squash, sliced into rounds
- 1 red bell pepper, cut into squares
- 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into squares
- 1 red onion, cut into wedges
- 8 oz. cherry tomatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 teaspoons dried oregano
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Wooden or metal skewers
Instructions
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat or preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, oregano, salt, and pepper. Whisk together until well mixed.
- Add the sliced zucchini, yellow squash, bell peppers, red onion, and cherry tomatoes to the bowl. Toss until the vegetables are evenly coated with the marinade.
- If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning. Thread the marinated vegetables onto the skewers, alternating between different types to create an attractive presentation.
- Place the skewers on the grill or on a baking sheet if using the oven. Grill for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and slightly charred. If using the oven, roast for about 20-25 minutes, turning halfway through.
- Once cooked, remove the kabobs from the heat and let them cool for a few moments before serving. They can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature.
