• 2 garlic cloves (minced)
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 8 wooden or metal skewers

Directions

Step 1

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning on the grill.

Step 2

Wash and dry all vegetables thoroughly.

Step 3

Cut the red and yellow bell peppers into approximately 1-inch square pieces.

Step 4

Slice the zucchini into 1/2-inch thick rounds.

Step 5

Peel the red onion and cut it into wedges, separating the layers as needed.

Step 6

In a medium bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

Step 7

Add the chopped vegetables (bell peppers, zucchini, red onion, cherry tomatoes, and mushrooms) to a large mixing bowl.

Step 8

Pour the marinade over the vegetables and toss well to coat evenly. Let the vegetables marinate for 15 minutes.

Step 9

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Step 10

Thread the vegetables onto the skewers, alternating the different vegetables for a colorful presentation.

Step 11

Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.

Step 12

Place the kebabs on the grill and cook for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and slightly charred.

Step 13

Remove the kebabs from the grill and serve immediately as a main dish or side dish.
