Sunday Mezze

Yesterday I fired up the grill and did several small things with a mediterranean influence:

1. Chicken marinated in a paste made from garlic, thyme, rosemary, parsley, dried chili, salt, pepper, lemon juice, and olive oil, then grilled on the slow side of the grill and finished with a couple of minutes directly over the coals.
2. Roasted peppers with thyme, rosemary, and olive oil.
3. Baba ganouj made from eggplant roasted whole on the grill.
4. hummus
5. a yogurt sauce made with grated cucumber, garlic, yogurt, salt, and piment d'espelette.

We ate this with lettuce and some flat bread and were pretty happy with our lot in life. :-)
