Preparation

Step 1

VINAIGRETTE:
In a medium bowl or blender, combine lime juice, ginger, honey, and chile powder. Whisk, shake or blend, ingredients until combined. Add 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil and whisk, shake or blend to combine. Add sesame oil, plus remaining olive oil if needed. Whisk, shake or blend until oils are incorporated and emulsified.

VEGETABLES:
Preheat a grill to medium-high. In a large bowl, gently toss vegetables with olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated. Add vegetables to grill and cook, flipping halfway, until tender, about 10 to 12 minutes for denser vegetables. (Tip: Add denser vegetables such as bell peppers and onions to the grill first. After a few minutes add the tender vegetables such as squash and mushrooms).

Arrange vegetables on a long platter. If vinaigrette has separated, whisk, shake or blend to re-emulsify. Drizzle over vegetables and serve immediately.
