VEGGIE SKEWERS



Veggie Skewers image

Provided by Dave Lieberman

Categories     side-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 red, yellow, or orange bell peppers (or a combination of), cored, seeded, and cut into 1-inch pieces
1 medium zucchini, trimmed, halved lengthwise, and cut into 1-inch slices
1 medium yellow squash, halved lengthwise, and cut into 1-inch slices
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 to 4 pinches salt
10 to 15 grinds pepper
2 garlic cloves, pressed
1 medium red onion, cut into 2-inch chunks*
wooden or metal skewers

Steps:

  • If you are using wooden skewers, soak them in plenty of water for about 10 minutes if grilling on an indoor grill pan or for 30 minutes if grilling on an outdoor grill to prevent them from burning up.
  • Place all of the veggies in a large bowl or baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, and garlic. With your hands, toss to combine well. Stick onion pieces in with the vegetables to coat with the marinade; avoid tossing once onion is added so that the onion does not fall apart.
  • Alternate the vegetables with the onions on wooden or metal skewers. The onions will get nice and juicy rubbing up against the other veggies. You can do this up to a few hours before you grill them.
  • Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
  • Arrange the skewers on the grill pan and cook, turning often, until slightly charred, about 15 minutes. Remove from grill and serve hot or at room temperature.
  • *Cook's Note: To get skewer-able chunks of onions, cut the onions in half through the core and then cut each half into quarters. Remove 2 or 3 of the innermost layers, leaving the larger outermost layers. They will fit nicely on your skewers.

GOOD VEGGIE SKEWERS



Good Veggie Skewers image

I made this for our Memorial Day dinner. We don't have a regular grill because they are not allowed at our apartment complex, but even on a George Foreman grill, they came out really good. You can use any type of vegetable you like, and if you want more seasoning, or don't like the Montreal Chicken seasoning, you can use any type you like. Very easy, and tasty.

This flavorful recipe is one that takes little time to execute and is sure to please most any veggie lover! It is inspired by the Grilled Garlic and Parmesean Veggie Skewers at Logan's Steak House, but is my own recreation of their recipe. This recipe can be used with a variety of vegetables, I suppose, but my personal favorites are those that I've included in the recipe. (Mushrooms make a pretty good addition). All the ingredients are approximate and can be tweaked to any cook's liking! I hope you enjoy; Bon Appetite! :)

HOISIN-GLAZED PORK AND VEGGIE SKEWERS



Hoisin-Glazed Pork and Veggie Skewers image

Hoisin sauce infused with ginger, garlic and sesame serves as both marinade and grilling mop for these pork and veggie skewers. We love grilled citrus; the orange is great either squeezed over the skewers or saved as a treat at the end. Make the marinade again for grilled pork chops or chicken thighs.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

One 2-inch piece ginger, finely grated
1 large clove garlic, finely grated
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup dry white vermouth
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 cup hoisin sauce
1 1/2 pounds pork tenderloin, cut into 1-inch chunks
1 cup snow peas (about 4 ounces)
One 8-ounce can sliced water chestnuts, drained
2 small red peppers, halved, seeded and cut into 1-inch pieces
One 15-ounce can baby corn, drained and halved crosswise
1/2 navel orange, cut into 4 wedges, wedges halved
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus more for oiling the grill grates
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 Family Size Tea Bags
2 quarts water
Sugar or sweetener, optional

Steps:

  • For the marinade and mop: Whisk together the ginger, garlic, soy sauce, vermouth, sesame oil, vinegar and sugar in a measuring cup. Pour 1/4 cup of the marinade into a small bowl, whisk in the hoisin sauce and set this basting "mop" aside.
  • For the kebabs: Toss the remaining marinade with the pork in a medium bowl, then cover and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • Carefully thread onto a skewer 1 piece of pork, 1 snow pea folded over a water chestnut slice (the pea will crack on one side, but it will help hold in the water chestnut), a piece of red pepper and a piece of baby corn; repeat twice, then end with a piece of orange, skin side facing the last baby corn. Repeat with the remaining skewers and ingredients.
  • Prepare a grill for cooking over medium-high heat. Brush the skewers with the vegetable oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Lightly oil the grill grates. Grill the skewers until the pork is cooked through and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a piece registers 140 degrees F, 7 to 8 minutes per side. Brush the skewers with the mop, and continue grilling until the mop caramelizes, about 1 minute. Serve with iced tea.
  • For the iced tea: Pour 4 cups boiling water over teabags in a heatproof pitcher and allow to brew, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove teabags and add sweetener to taste. Stir in 6 cups ice cubes until melted. Keep refrigerated until ready to use. Makes two quarts.
