Grilled Marinated Vegetables
|
2 large, red or yellow sweet peppers
1 medium, firm eggplant
4 medium (about 6") zucchini
3/4 cup, Sonoma County Vinaigrette
4 tablespoons, salt
1 cup, coarsely chopped fresh basil leaves
|

Roast and prepare peppers in the manner described in Roasted Sweet Peppers.
Place pepper strips in a large mixing bowl.
Cut off the ends of
the eggplants, and cut lengthwise into 1/2" thick slices. Place slices on
a large tray or breadboard and sprinkle with salt on both sides, then
allow the eggplant to stand for 30 minutes, minimum (the salt will draw
out the bitter taste from the eggplant).
Wash salt off of eggplant, and
pat dry with paper towels.
Cut ends off zucchini and slice lengthwise
into two pieces.
Place eggplant and zucchini in a shallow roasting pan
(or on a grill) and brush with vinaigrette (about 1/4 cup) and place them
under the broiler (or on the grill) until they are golden on both sides.
Place them in the mixing bowl, along with the peppers.
Drizzle vegetables
with remaining vinaigrette, chopped basil, and ground pepper, and mix
well.
Serve at room temperature.
Makes 6 servings as sole appetizer, or
more servings when accompanied by other antipasti.
Enjoy with our 2005 Sauvignon Blanc.
