Grilled Vegetable And Tomato Flatbread
Ingredients:
– 1 store-bought flatbread or pizza dough
– 1 zucchini, thinly sliced
– 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced into strips
– 1 red onion, thinly sliced
– 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
– 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon dried oregano
– Salt and black pepper to taste
– Fresh basil leaves for garnish
Instructions:
1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a flavorful seasoning.
3. Place the sliced zucchini, bell pepper, and red onion in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle half of the prepared seasoning over the vegetables and toss gently to coat them evenly.
4. Brush the flatbread or pizza dough lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with the remaining seasoning mixture.
5. Place the seasoned vegetables on the grill or a baking sheet if using the oven. Grill or roast until they are tender and slightly charred, about 8-10 minutes.
6. While the vegetables are cooking, grill or bake the flatbread until it is crispy and golden brown, about 5-7 minutes. If using a grill, make sure to flip the flatbread halfway through the cooking process.
7. Once the flatbread is cooked and the vegetables are ready, assemble the flatbread by arranging the grilled vegetables on top.
8. Sprinkle the cherry tomatoes and crumbled feta cheese over the vegetables.
9. Return the flatbread to the grill or oven for an additional 2-3 minutes to melt the cheese slightly.
10. Remove the flatbread from the heat and garnish with fresh basil leaves for a pop of color and flavor.
11. Slice the flatbread into wedges and serve immediately, allowing everyone to enjoy the delicious combination of flavors while they are warm and fresh.
