Grilled Veggie Skewers with Marinara (Ratatouille Style!)
Everything you love in the classic French dish…on a stick! Channel your inner chef and make these kebabs—you will be amazed by the simplicity and scrumptiousness of these skewers.
Ingredients
- 1 small eggplant*, sliced into ¼-inch circles
- 1 medium green zucchini, sliced into ¼-inch circles
- 1 medium yellow summer squash, sliced into ¼-inch circles
- 1 medium red onion, sliced into 1 to 2-inch chunks
- ¼ to ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- Pepper to taste
- 1 cup marinara sauce
Instructions
- Soak wooden skewers in water for about 15 minutes, as this will prevent them from burning on the grill. Pierce the sliced veggies on the skewers in any preferred pattern (I typically alternate 2 slices of each) and generously mist all sides with olive oil spray. Alternatively, you can brush them with oil, too.
- Sprinkle salt and pepper all over and place on the grill set at medium-high for 15 to 20 minutes, rotating a few times while they cook. The veggies should be soft and lightly charred.
- Serve hot or at room temperature, topped with warm marinara sauce.
