Ingredients

• 2 medium Zucchini
• 1 large Red bell pepper
• 1 large Yellow bell pepper
• 1 large Red onion
• 250 grams Baby carrots
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Wash all the vegetables thoroughly under running water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.

Step 2

Slice the zucchini into 1/4 inch thick rounds. Cut the bell peppers into large chunks, removing the seeds and inner membranes. Peel the red onion and slice it into 1/2 inch thick rounds.

Step 3

Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.

Step 4

In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced zucchini, bell pepper chunks, onion rounds, and baby carrots.

Step 5

Drizzle the olive oil over the vegetables and sprinkle with garlic powder, smoked paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Toss gently to coat the vegetables evenly in the oil and seasoning.

Step 6

Brush the grill grates lightly with oil to prevent sticking. Place the vegetables evenly on the grill.

Step 7

Cook the vegetables for approximately 3-5 minutes per side, or until they are tender and have clear grill marks. Turn them carefully using tongs to avoid burning.

Step 8

Once grilled, remove the vegetables from the heat and place them on a serving platter.

Step 9

Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the vegetables to add a pop of color and flavor.

Step 10

Serve the grilled vegetables warm as a side dish or as a main course with crusty bread or a grain like quinoa or couscous.
