Terrific for summer, this recipe calls for fresh vegetables brushed with a mild maple glaze and then grilled to perfection. They go well with any meat dish.

Ingredients

1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
1/3 cup maple syrup
1 large red onion
1 pound fresh asparagus, trimmed
1 pound baby carrots
2 medium zucchini, cut lengthwise into thirds and seeded
1 medium sweet red pepper, cut into eight pieces
1 medium sweet yellow pepper, cut into eight pieces
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon minced fresh thyme or 1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper

Directions

For glaze, in a small saucepan, bring vinegar and syrup to a boil. Reduce heat; cook and stir over medium heat for 6-8 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat; set aside.
Cut onion into eight wedges to 1/2 in. of the bottom. Place the onion, asparagus, carrots, zucchini and peppers in a large bowl. Drizzle with oil and sprinkle with seasonings; toss to coat.
Using long-handled tongs, moisten a paper towel with cooking oil and lightly coat the grill rack. Arrange vegetables on rack.
Grill, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from the heat for 10 minutes on each side. Brush with half of the glaze; grill 5-8 minutes longer or until crisp-tender. Before serving, brush with remaining glaze. Yield: 8 servings.

This isn't so much a review (although this looks like a great dish and I'd like to try it) as a question. According to this recipe, you'd be grilling these veggies for nearly half an hour. That doesn't seem right, and I wonder if that's why no one has reviewed this yet. Could it be that you grill the vegetables for a TOTAL of 10 minutes in the first step, rather than 10 minutes on each side? Has anyone tried it?
