GRILLED VEGETABLES WITH BALSAMIC VINEGAR

Steps:

• Whisk olive oil, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Toss eggplants, zucchinis, and bell peppers in soy sauce marinade. Marinate for about 45 minutes.
• Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Remove vegetables from marinade, shaking off excess.

GRILLED FINGERLING-POTATO SALAD WITH CHIPOTLE BACON VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Put the potatoes in a large pot and cover with 2 inches of water and a tablespoon of salt, then set over high heat until it comes to a boil. Cook about 5 to 7 minutes. Drain potatoes, place on a baking sheet and allow to cool slightly, then halve the potatoes lengthwise. (You can do this the day before.)
• Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a sauté pan until crisp. Reserve bacon and, in a small bowl, 1 tablespoon of the rendered fat.
• Light a fire in a fire pit with a grill, or in a charcoal grill, or set a gas grill to high. If you have a strong vent in your kitchen, you may use your stove with a burner set to high. Place a large cast-iron grill pan over the heat and allow it to get hot. You can let the fire die slightly. If using a gas grill or stove, turn heat to medium.
• Put the potatoes and the sliced onions in a large bowl and toss gently with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Working in batches, grill the potatoes cut-side down on the grill until they have developed a light char, approximately 2 to 3 minutes. Grill the onions until they are charred, approximately 4 to 6 minutes a side. Return potatoes and onions to bowl.
• For the dressing, combine the remaining olive oil, bacon fat, red-wine vinegar and chipotle in a small bowl and whisk to emulsify. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add the dressing to the potato-and-onion mixture and toss gently to combine. Let sit for 20 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate the potatoes. Crumble bacon over the top.

GRILLED VEGETABLES WITH CHIPOTLE DRESSING

Grill vegetables until tender and beginning to brown, turning occasionally, about 5 minutes for tomatoes, zucchini, yellow squash, eggplant and onion and 15 minutes for chayote squash.
• Separate grilled onion slices into rings. Arrange all grilled vegetables on platter. Drizzle remaining dressing over. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Serve warm or at room temperature.

GRILLED CABBAGE STEAKS WITH CREAMY CHIPOTLE DRESSING

Steps:

• Prepare a grill or cast-iron grill pan for medium-high heat. Clean and oil the grill grates.
• Cut the green and red cabbage halves into 6 wedges each, about 1 inch thick, leaving the core intact. Add the cabbage wedges to a baking sheet, brush on both sides with the olive oil and season with 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Grill the cabbage until charred and slightly softened, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer back to the baking sheet and allow to cool slightly.
• Combine the vinegar, sugar, black peppercorns, coriander seeds, mustard seeds, 2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over high heat and cook until the sugar dissolves, about 1 minute. Add the onions to a small heatproof bowl and pour the vinegar mixture over the onions. Set aside until ready to use.
• Whisk together the yogurt, lime juice, chipotle in adobo sauce, honey and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl until combined.
• Shingle the cabbage wedges on a serving platter, alternating between the green and red. Drizzle generously with the chipotle dressing and top with the tomatoes, corn, black beans, pickled onions, Cotija and cilantro.
