Corn on the cob is nothing new. And many are familiar with the mushrooms, onions and peppers that accompany a meaty favorite, shish kebab. But veggies are capable of so much more than mere accompaniment. With a bit of olive oil and seasoning including salt, pepper, garlic and a lemon, the charcoal brings out the best in produce. Quarter or slice new potatoes for the grill.
Artichokes are just as easy.
Simply slice and let your mouth water as the aroma tempts. Just wrap it foil. These veggies are perfect with just a touch of seasoning, but add them to a side dish and you have turned up the heat on a stellar meal. Many of these veggies cook quickly, and you can cut down on grilling time by prepping them in the kitchen with a little blanching first. This gets the cooking process started and allows the grill to add that perfect flame-kissed taste.
