Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 2 medium zucchini cut into 1-inch thick half-moons
  • 2 red bell peppers cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 yellow bell pepper cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 large red onion cut into 1-inch wedges
  • 8 ounces cremini mushrooms cleaned
  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup Louisiana Cajun Infused Olive Oil Blend
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 8 wooden or metal skewers

Equipment

  • 1 Large mixing bowl For tossing the vegetables with the marinade
  • 1 whisk For combining the marinade
  • 1 Grill Preheat to medium-high heat
  • 8 Skewers Wooden or metal
  • 1 Tongs For turning the skewers on the grill

Method
 

Instructions
  1. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 20 minutes before grilling.
  2. Whisk together the Louisiana Cajun Infused Olive Oil Blend, lemon juice, garlic, kosher salt, and black pepper in a large bowl.
  3. Add the zucchini, bell peppers, red onion, mushrooms, and cherry tomatoes, then toss until the vegetables are evenly coated.
  4. Let the vegetables sit in the marinade for 10 minutes while you preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
  5. Thread the vegetables onto the skewers, alternating colors and shapes for even grilling and a nice presentation.
  6. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for 10 to 12 minutes, turning every 2 to 3 minutes, until the vegetables are charred at the edges and tender in the center.
  7. Transfer the skewers to a platter and serve warm.

Notes

For the best color, keep the vegetables in a single layer on the grill and avoid overcrowding the skewers. You can also tuck in chunks of yellow squash or parboiled baby potatoes if you want a fuller side dish, but keep the cut size consistent so everything finishes together. The flavor is bold, savory, and smoky, with enough Cajun character to stand up to grilled mains without overpowering the vegetables.
