Instructions
Follow these straightforward steps to create perfect grilled fruit and vegetable kabobs:
1. Soak Wooden Skewers: If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for at least 30 minutes to prevent burning on the grill.
2. Prepare the Marinade: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
3. Chop the Produce: Cut all your chosen fruits and vegetables into uniform pieces for even cooking.
4. Marinate the Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the fruits and vegetables. Pour the marinade over them and toss gently to coat all pieces thoroughly. Allow marinating for 15 minutes.
5. Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
6. Assemble the Kabobs: Thread the marinated fruits and veggies onto the skewers, alternating between different ingredients for a colorful presentation.
7. Grill the Kabobs: Place the skewers on the grill. Cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the fruits and vegetables are tender and slightly charred.
8. Check for Doneness: The kabobs should have nice grill marks and be tender but not mushy.
9. Remove and Rest: Carefully remove the kabobs from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
