Description
Delicious and foolproof grilling recipes that celebrate the flavor and technique of outdoor cooking.
Ingredients
Scale
- Protein (Chicken, Steak, or Tofu)
- 60 ml (¼ cup) Olive Oil
- 30 ml (2 tablespoons) Lemon Juice
- 2 cloves Minced Garlic
- Salt and Pepper to taste
- Vegetables (Bell Peppers, Zucchini, Corn)
- High smoke point Oil (Olive, Avocado, or Sesame)
Instructions
- Combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl to prepare the marinade. Marinate protein for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat the grill to a medium-high setting, around 200°C (400°F).
- Wash and slice vegetables into even pieces, about 2 cm (1 inch) thick. Toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
- Remove the protein from the marinade and place it on the grill. Cook chicken for 6–8 minutes on each side or steak for 4–5 minutes per side.
- Add the prepared vegetables to the grill after the protein has cooked for a few minutes. Grill for about 8–10 minutes until tender and charred.
- Remove from the grill and let the meat rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with grilled vegetables.
Notes
Marinate proteins a day ahead for deeper flavors. Avoid flipping meat too often to achieve a good crust.
