How To Make Seasoned Grilled Vegetables Step by Step
Step 1 – Preheat the grill: Set your grill to medium-high heat. This ensures your vegetables will cook evenly while developing those beautiful grill marks.
Step 2 – Prepare the vegetables: Wash and cut the vegetables into even pieces for uniform cooking. This not only makes for a prettier presentation but also ensures each piece cooks at the same rate.
Step 3 – Season the vegetables: In a large bowl, toss the vegetables with olive oil, Isle of Skye Sea Salt and black pepper. The oil helps the salt adhere to the vegetables, ensuring every bite is perfectly seasoned.
Step 4 – Grill the vegetables: Arrange the vegetables in a single layer on the grill. Grill for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and have nice grill marks.
Step 5 – Finish and serve: Remove the vegetables from the grill and sprinkle with an extra pinch of Isle of Skye Sea Salt and fresh herbs, if desired. This final touch enhances the smoky flavors with a burst of sea-salty goodness.
Step 6 – Serve immediately to enjoy the full flavor. The warmth of the grill helps the vegetables absorb the nuanced taste of the sea salt.
Grilling vegetables is an art, and like any art, it’s all about the details. With the right seasoning—specifically, Isle of Skye Sea Salt—your grilled vegetables will have a depth of flavor that’s sure to impress. Whether you’re hosting a backyard barbecue or enjoying a quiet dinner on the patio, these perfectly seasoned grilled vegetables will be the star of the show. So fire up the grill, grab your sea salt, and get ready to taste summer in every bite!
