Grilled Courgette Pepper Salad

This vibrant grilled courgette and pepper salad is a celebration of simple, seasonal produce. By charring the vegetables over a high heat, you unlock a deep, smoky sweetness that pairs perfectly with the tangy balsamic dressing. It is a fantastic vegan dish that brings a burst of colour to any table, whether you are hosting a summer barbecue or looking for a light, healthy lunch option.

Packed with Mediterranean flavours, this versatile salad is equally delicious served warm or at room temperature. The addition of fresh basil provides a fragrant finish, while the resting time allows the vegetables to soak up the syrupy dressing. Serve it alongside crusty sourdough or as part of a larger plant-based spread for a truly satisfying meal.

Ingredients for Grilled Courgette Pepper Salad

  • 675g courgette, cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices

  • 2 red peppers, quartered

  • 60ml extra-virgin olive oil, divided

  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

How to make Grilled Courgette Pepper Salad

Prepare grill for direct-heat cooking over medium-hot charcoal (medium-high heat for gas); see Grilling Procedure , or heat a 2-burner grill pan over medium heat until hot.

Toss vegetables with 2 tablespoons oil, 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoons pepper. Grill, turning occasionally, until tender, 6 to 8 minutes total. If using grill pan, grill in batches, 10 to 15 minutes per batch. Transfer peppers to a bowl and let stand, covered, 10 minutes. Peel peppers and cut into 1-inch pieces. Cut courgette crosswise into 1-inch pieces.

Whisk together vinegar, brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoons salt, 1/8 teaspoons pepper, and remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large bowl. Stir in vegetables and basil. Let stand 15 minutes for flavours to blend.
