Grilled Veggie Salad
The best of summer, in a grill basket, topped with fresh citrus
Equipment
- Grill
- Grill basket
- Long tongs
Ingredients
- 1 zucchini
- 1 onion, red or white
- 1 bell pepper
- 1-2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 2 ears corn, husks removed
- 1 lime, halved
- 2 tbsp freshly chopped herbs, like cilantro, chives, or parsley
- 1/4 cup cotija cheese, grated or crumbled
Instructions
- Dice all veggies (except corn) in 1/2-inch cubes. Place in a large bowl and drizzle with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat.
- Preheat grill with grill basket inside to medium-high heat for at least 10 minutes.
- Add cut vegetables to grill basket and allow to cook with lid closed, turning every 3-5 minutes to prevent sticking and promote even cooking, about 10-12 minutes total. Remove veggies carefully with tongs to a large bowl.
- Grill corn directly on grill and turn every 5 minutes until nicely charred, about 12-15 minutes total. Remove from grill and allow to cool enough to handle. Cut corn kernels off of the cob and add to the other veggies.
- Squeeze 1/2 lime over veggies, top with herbs and cotija cheese.
Notes
Sub feta for cotija and parsley for cilantro for a more mediterranean flavor!
