To begin grilling veggies in a grill basket, first preheat your grill to medium-high heat. While the grill is warming up, wash and chop your vegetables into uniform sizes to ensure even cooking. A perfect blend might include bell peppers, asparagus, cherry tomatoes, and red onions. Once chopped, toss your vegetables in a bowl with olive oil, salt, pepper, and any other seasonings you prefer, such as garlic powder, Italian herbs, or even a splash of balsamic vinegar for added flavor.
One of the most appealing aspects of over fire cooking is the robust flavor it imparts to food. The direct exposure to flames creates a beautiful char and smokiness that simply cannot be replicated in a conventional oven or stovetop. Meats cooked over an open fire develop a savory crust while remaining juicy inside, and vegetables take on a delightful sweetness as their natural sugars caramelize.
