Grilled Vegetables

1. 01

   Prepare the Grill

   Start your charcoal or wood fire grill. You'll want to create one or two hot zones on the grate for cooking.
2. 02

   Prep and Season Vegetables

   Clean, peel, and cut all the vegetables. Place them in a large bowl, but keep the onions separate for now; they tend to fall apart when tossed. Season the onions separately with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper.

   Drizzle the remaining vegetables with 1/4 cup olive oil, a pinch of sea salt, and freshly cracked pepper. Use your hands to gently toss, making sure everything is evenly coated. Add more olive oil if the vegetables still look dry.

   Heat the Grate

   Once your charcoal or wood is ready, place a lightly oiled cooking grate over the heat and let it warm up for a few minutes. This helps ensure those clean grill marks.

   Grill the Vegetables

   Arrange the seasoned vegetables on the hot grate, cooking one side at a time until tender and lightly charred. If you notice them charring too quickly, shift them to a cooler zone on the grill.

   Finish and Serve

   Once the vegetables are cooked through, transfer them to a large bowl. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and squeeze the juice from half a lemon (or lime) over everything. Serve as is, or alongside a homemade chimichurri sauce.
