SALSA VERDE GRILLED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Combine the garlic, preserved lemon, onion, capers, anchovies, and vinegar in a food processor until the ingredients come together. Add the fresh herbs, with the motor running, drizzle in the olive oil until a bright green, chunky mixture forms. Squeeze in the lemon juice and season with a pinch of sea salt. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, add the prepped veggies and a ¼ cup of the salsa verde. Toss until evenly coated and season lightly with salt and pepper.
• Grill the vegetables at 450°F until they have cooked through and have marks on both sides from the grill. Transfer to a serving plate, drizzle with a few tablespoons of the salsa verde, garnish with basil leaves and serve immediately.
• Notes
• Double or triple the salsa verde recipe and save some for later! In addition to grilled vegetables, it's delicious as a topping on fish, chicken or steak. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days or freeze for later use.
