  • 1 bunch Asparagus trimmed
  • 1 cup Cherry Tomatoes halved
For the Chimichurri Sauce

  • 4 cloves Garlic Cloves minced

  • 1/2 cup Olive Oil
  • 1 teaspoon Crushed Red Pepper Flakes for heat

Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 400°F (200°C).
  2. Wash and slice the zucchini, bell peppers, and red onion into even pieces, about 1-inch wide. Trim the ends of the asparagus and halve the cherry tomatoes.
  3. In a food processor, combine fresh parsley, garlic cloves, red wine vinegar, crushed red pepper flakes, and olive oil. Pulse until well-blended but still textured.
  4. Toss the chopped vegetables with chimichurri sauce in a large bowl until evenly coated. Allow marinating for 15-20 minutes.
  5. Grill the marinated vegetables for 5-7 minutes per side until tender and charred. Watch for those grill marks.
  6. Remove from grill and drizzle remaining chimichurri sauce over warm veggies.
  7. Serve immediately, either as a side dish or a light main course, with extra chimichurri on hand.
