Ingredients

• 2 medium zucchini
• 1 large red bell pepper
• 1 large yellow bell pepper
• 1 large red onion
• 10 pieces button mushrooms
• 15 pieces cherry tomatoes
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 minced garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 10 pieces wooden skewers

Directions

Step 1

Soak the wooden skewers in water for at least 20 minutes to prevent burning while grilling.

Step 2

Wash all the vegetables and pat them dry with a clean towel.

Step 3

Cut the zucchini into 1/2-inch thick rounds, and dice the red and yellow bell peppers into 1-inch pieces.

Step 4

Peel and cut the red onion into 1-inch pieces, separating the layers.

Step 5

Place the prepared zucchini, bell peppers, red onion, button mushrooms, and cherry tomatoes in a large mixing bowl.

Step 6

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

Step 7

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

Step 8

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (approximately 375–400°F). Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.

Step 9

Thread the marinated vegetables onto the soaked skewers, alternating between different types of vegetables for a vibrant presentation.

Step 10

Place the skewers on the preheated grill and cook for 8–10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and lightly charred.

Step 11

Remove the skewers from the grill and let them rest for 2–3 minutes before serving.

Step 12

Serve the grilled veggie shish kabobs warm as a side dish or main course and enjoy!
