Miso Grilled Vegetable Skewers
Ingredients:
– 1/4 cup white miso paste
– 2 tablespoons soy sauce

– 1 tablespoon honey
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon grated ginger
– 1 tablespoon sesame oil
– 2 zucchinis, sliced into rounds
– 1 red bell pepper, cut into chunks
– 1 yellow bell pepper, cut into chunks
– 1 red onion, cut into chunks
– Cherry tomatoes
– Wooden skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes
Instructions:
1. In a small bowl, whisk together the miso paste, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil to make the marinade.
2. Place the zucchini, bell peppers, red onion, and cherry tomatoes in a large mixing bowl. Pour the marinade over the vegetables and toss to ensure they are all well coated. Let them marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for maximum flavor.
3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
4. Thread the marinated vegetables onto the soaked skewers, alternating between the different veggies to create colorful patterns.
5. Place the skewers on the grill and cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and slightly charred. Be sure to brush any remaining marinade onto the veggies as they cook to add more flavor.
6. Once the vegetables are cooked to your liking, remove them from the grill and transfer to a serving platter.
7. Serve the Miso Grilled Vegetable Skewers hot off the grill, garnished with some sesame seeds and chopped green onions for an extra pop of flavor. These skewers pair perfectly with steamed rice or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
