By , About.com Guide

This beautiful and nutritious summer side dish recipe takes colorful vegetables and threads them on kabobs, then grills them with herbed butter sauce until they're tender and smoky.

Prep Time: 30 minutes

Cook Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 12 new red potatoes
  • 2 onions
  • 1 green bell pepper
  • 1 red bell pepper

  • 12 large mushrooms
  • 12 cherry tomatoes
  • 1/3 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 tsp. garlic salt
  • 1/2 tsp. dried thyme leaves

Preparation:

Prepare and preheat grill. Peel a thin strip around the center of each small new potato and place in saucepan with onions. Cover with water, bring to a boil, and simmer for 6-8 minutes until potatoes are barely tender. Drain well. Cut each onion into 6 wedges. Seed bell peppers and cut each into 6 wedges.
