Whisk together the ½ cup olive oil, 4 cloves garlic minced, 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice, 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar, 1 tsp dried oregano, 1 tsp dried thyme, 1 tsp kosher salt, and ½ tsp black pepper in a small mixing bowl until well combined. Set the marinade aside.

Prepare all vegetables: slice the 2 medium zucchini sliced lengthwise into 1/4-inch planks and 1 medium yellow squash sliced lengthwise into 1/4-inch planks lengthwise into 1/4-inch planks, quarter the 2 red bell peppers seeded, cut the red onion into 1/2-inch rounds (use toothpicks to keep the rings together), trim the 1 lb asparagus tough ends, halve any large mushrooms, and cut the 2 ears of corn husked into thirds.

Use a grill for the 1 lb asparagus tough ends and any smaller pieces.

  • Corn
  • Red Bell Pepper
  • Zucchini

Crumble 1 oz feta cheese over the platter if using. Serve with 1 medium lemon cut into wedges for serving wedges on the side for squeezing over.
