INGREDIENTS

  • 2 pounds of assorted vegetables trimmed and halved or cut into 2-inch pieces. I used asparagus, mushrooms, red onion, red bell peppers, baby carrots, and yellow squash.
  • 5 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons dried Italian seasoning
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons garlic minced
  • 1/4 cup parsley leaves chopped
  • lemon wedges for serving optional

INSTRUCTIONS

  • Place the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, and minced garlic in a large bowl. Whisk to combine.
  • Add the vegetables to the bowl and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes or up to 2 hours.
  • Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
  • Add the denser vegetables first, such as the carrots (or potatoes if using). Cook for 3-4 minutes, then add the rest of the vegetables to the grill.
  • Cook the vegetables for 3-5 minutes per side or until browned and tender.
  • Place the vegetables on a serving plate. Sprinkle with parsley and garnish with lemon wedges if desired.
