Ingredients

For the kebabs:

  • 24 Cherry tomatoes
  • 1 large onion cut into 1 inch pieces
  • 1 Red pepper cut into 1 inch pieces
  • 1 green zucchini cut into 1/2 inch slices
  • 1 yellow zucchini cut into 1/2 inch slices

For the marinade:

  • 1/3 Cup olive oil
  • Juice of one lemon
  • 1 Teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 Teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
  • 1 Teaspoon brown sugar
  • 2 Spring fresh mint finely chopped
  • A few extra mint leaves roughly torn
  • 1 Teaspoon oregano
  • 1 Teaspoon rosemary

Instructions

  • Combine all of the marinade ingredients (except the extra torn mint leaves) in a bowl and stir well. Pour over the vegetables and toss well to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour.
  • When ready to cook, arrange your vegetables on the skewers however you like. With these kebabs I started and ended with cherry tomatoes and put one in the middle. Repeat for all kebabs.
  • Turn on your grill and bring it up to a medium to high heat. Place the kebabs on the grill and cook, rotating every few minutes until they are cooked through but not burnt or too soft. Usually takes anywhere between 12-15 minutes.
  • Remove from heat, pour over remaining marinade, toss over mint and serve straight away.
