Herb Dipping Sauce

Method

Grilling the Vegetables

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash and slice the zucchini, bell peppers, and eggplant into uniform pieces. Trim the asparagus ends.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Vegetables

    In a large bowl, combine the sliced vegetables with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Toss until evenly coated and let sit for 15 minutes.

  3. 3

    Grill the Vegetables

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the vegetables for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until they are tender and have grill marks. Remove from the grill and set aside.

Making the Herb Dipping Sauce

  1. 4

    Blend the Sauce

    In a food processor, combine fresh basil, parsley, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth.

  2. 5

    Taste and Adjust

    Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper as needed.
