Ingredients

  • Bell peppers (red, yellow, green) - 1 cup (chopped)
  • Zucchini - 1 medium (sliced)
  • Carrot - 1 medium (sliced)
  • Red onion - 1 small (sliced)
  • Mushrooms (shiitake or button) - 1 cup (halved)
  • Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
  • Soy sauce (low sodium) - 3 tablespoons
  • Brown sugar - 1 tablespoon
  • Rice vinegar - 1 tablespoon
  • Garlic - 2 cloves (minced)
  • Ginger - 1 teaspoon (grated)
  • Sesame seeds - 1 teaspoon (for garnish)
  • Green onions - 2 (chopped, for garnish)

Steps

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  2. In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, minced garlic, and grated ginger to create the teriyaki marinade.
  3. Add the chopped vegetables (bell peppers, zucchini, carrot, red onion, and mushrooms) to the marinade and toss to coat evenly. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes.
  4. After marinating, thread the vegetables onto skewers, or place them directly on the grill if using a grill basket.
  5. Brush the grill grates with olive oil to prevent sticking, then place the skewers or basket on the grill.
  6. Grill the vegetables for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are tender and have nice grill marks.
  7. Remove the vegetables from the grill and sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped green onions before serving.
