Tangy Marinated Vegetables Recipes

TANGY MARINATED VEGGIES

Steps:

• Chop red onion, yellow pepper, red pepper, and orange pepper. The larger the better! Your veggies will shrink when grilling so typically about 2 inches x 2 inches works great! Place chopped veggies with mushrooms into a large mixing bowl.
• Combine soy sauce, oil, white wine vinegar, sugar, oregano, & basil in a smaller mixing bowl and whisk together.
• Pour the marinade over veggies in a larger bowl and cover with a lid. Gently, toss the vegetables in the marinade.
• Place veggies and marinade in the refrigerator and let sit for 4-6 hours.
• If using wooden skewers; it is important to soak the skewers just prior to grilling for about 20 min. (or follow the skewer package instructions).
• After 4-6 hours, remove the veggies from the refrigerator and begin stacking the veggies onto the skewers. Interchange the pepper colours, onion, and mushrooms. I like to ensure that every skewer has 2 mushrooms at least; as they burst with flavor. (Alternately when in a rush I have omitted the skewers and just tossed the marinated veggies in a grill pain over the BBQ or on the stove..... the flavor is still there but the skewers are more fun!)
• Preheat grill to medium heat (375-400 degrees Fahrenheit).
• Oil the grill gates with a little bit of vegetable oil and silicone brush.
• Grill for a total of approximately 4 min per side; or until veggies appear lightly charred and tender.
• Serve immediately.

MOM'S MARINATED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly-salted water to a boil. Add the sliced carrots, and cook until just tender, about 3 minutes. Drain in a colander, then immediately immerse in ice water for several minutes until cold to stop the cooking process. Once the carrots are cold, drain well, and place into a large glass or plastic bowl.
• Place the green pepper, onion, cucumber, celery, cauliflower, and broccoli into the bowl along with the carrot; set aside. In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, mustard, and salt until the sugar begins to dissolve. Whisk in the vegetable oil and condensed tomato soup until smooth. Pour the marinade over the vegetables, and stir until evenly blended. Cover, and marinate overnight in the refrigerator.

• Using a mandoline, shave carrots, shallots, and chile into thin rounds; transfer to bowl with spices. Add vinegar and season with salt. Using your hands, massage mixture 20-30 seconds (this is just to get the flavors to meld faster). Let sit 10 minutes.

Finely grate a bit of lemon zest over each.
