Ingredients
Instructions
- 1
Start by soaking your skewers in water for about 15 minutes if you’re using wooden ones. This helps prevent them from burning.
- 2
In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. This marinade is where the magic happens!
- 3
Add the bell peppers, zucchini, red onion, cherry tomatoes, and mushrooms to the bowl, and toss everything until the veggies are well coated in the marinade.
- 4
Let the veggies marinate for at least 10 minutes while you prepare your grill or oven. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- 5
Thread the marinated veggies onto the soaked skewers, alternating between the different vegetables. You can also add a few spoonfuls of cooked quinoa onto the skewers for a hearty touch.
- 6
Grill the kebabs for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the veggies are tender and slightly charred. If you’re using the oven, place them on a baking sheet and roast for the same amount of time.
- 7
Once cooked, remove the kebabs from the grill or oven, and squeeze fresh lemon juice over them. Garnish with chopped parsley, and enjoy!
