Description

Elevate your grilled veggies with this tangy, sweet, and herby marinade. A harmonious blend of balsamic, Dijon, honey, and thyme creates a caramelized glaze that transforms any vegetable into a show-stopping side dish.


Ingredients

1/3 cup olive oil
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons honey
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh thyme, chopped
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper


Instructions

Whisk olive oil, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey, thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
Place your favorite vegetables (e.g., zucchini, bell peppers, eggplant) in a zip-top bag or bowl.
Pour the marinade over the vegetables, ensuring even coating. Seal and refrigerate for 30 minutes (or longer if time allows).
Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Remove vegetables from marinade and discard excess.
Grill vegetables for 15-20 minutes, flipping occasionally, until charred and tender.

Notes

Marinate for at least 30 minutes for optimal flavor.
Use vegetable pieces of similar thickness for even cooking.
Leftover marinade can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Try with seasonal vegetables like asparagus, mushrooms, or carrots.
