Ingredients
  

General Ingredients
  • 1.5 lbs protein source (chicken, beef, fish, tofu)
  • 0.5 cup BBQ sauce (sugar-free)
  • 2 tbsp spices (paprika, garlic powder, onion powder)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cups vegetables (bell peppers, zucchini, onions)

Equipment

  • Tongs
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Basting Brush

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly grease the grates.
  2. Cut your chosen protein source and vegetables into uniform pieces for even cooking.
Marinating & Grilling
  1. In a bowl, toss the protein, vegetables, olive oil, and spices until evenly coated.
  2. Place the protein and vegetables on the preheated grill and cook for 5-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
  3. During the last few minutes of cooking, brush with BBQ sauce, ensuring a good glaze.
Serving
  1. Remove from grill and let rest for a few minutes before serving.
  2. Serve hot, optionally garnished with fresh herbs.

Notes

For best results, marinate the protein for at least 30 minutes before grilling. You can also use a grill pan if you don't have an outdoor grill.
