Instructions

1. Prepping the Vegetables: First things first, wash and slice your veggies. Remember, the more uniform they are, the better they’ll cook. You want all of them to have their moment in the limelight – or should I say lime-light?
2. Marinating: In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, red chili flakes, lime zest, and lime juice. Stir this mixture until well combined. Now, throw in those veggies! Toss them until they’re coated in this tangy and spicy concoction.
3. Grilling: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Once hot, place the marinated vegetables on the grill. Let them sizzle and dance for about 5-7 minutes each side. They’ll become beautifully charred and oh-so-flavorful. And yes, the aroma? To die for!
4. Finishing Touches: Once off the grill, season your Spicy Grilled Vegetables with Lime with salt and pepper. Give them a good toss and let those flavors meld.

Tips

1. Lime it Up! Want even more of a lime kick? Add an extra zest or squeeze just before serving.
2. Heat Levels: Adjust the chili flakes according to your heat preference. Remember, it’s all about creating the Spicy Grilled Vegetables with Lime experience YOU want.
3. Grill Care: Using a grill mat or some aluminum foil can help prevent smaller veggies from falling through the grill grates. It also makes clean-up a breeze!
