Ingredients

  • 4 medium ears of corn quartered
  • 1 large red pepper seeds & stem removed
  • 1 large green pepper seeds & stem removed
  • 1 large zucchini 1/2" slices
  • 1 large yellow squash. 1/2" slices
  • 1 large red onion sliced into wedges
  • Garlic-Herb butter:
  • 1/2 cup light butter with canola oil, melted Land O'Lakes or similar [See Cook's note]
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 Tbsp chopped fresh Italian parsley or basil
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp garlic salt
  • 2 Tbsp grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • Clean and cut the vegetables. Quarter the corn, and slice the peppers into similar size pieces. Slice the zucchini and squash into 1/2 inch slices. Cut the onion into wedges.
  • Thread vegetables onto metal skewers.
  • Mix the melted butter with the garlic, parsley, onion powder and garlic salt reserving the grated Parmesan cheese for later.
  • Brush the kabobs with the butter. Oil the grill grates.
  • Place butter side down on the grill. Over medium heat grill the kabobs turning carefully and basting with butter every 7-8 minutes.
  • Cook for around 25 minutes total, or to your taste and desired texture until beautifully charred. Remove from the grill, drizzle with any left over garlic-herb butter before serving.
  • Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • I use light Land O'Lakes butter for the oil content making it less likely to overcook. It's lighter and full flavored, too.
  • If you use wooden skewers soak in water for at least 1 hour prior to using.
