Don't think just meat or fish for the grill. Veggies caramelize beautifully on the grill, but might require just a bit of marinade to shine. This was an inspiration from the Japanese Grandmother of our son's roommate, of Japanese heritage. Our son returned from Japan with a description of something like this. It seems everyone around the world appreciates grilled peppers, and knows a marinade of Balsamic vinegar. Welcome to the Globe.

3 bell peppers, different colors, seeded and quartered lengthwise
1/4 cup Balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup olive oil
salt and freshly group pepper
Grill the peppers on a hot grill, spraying them just a bit with oil. Grill until the edges brown up and they soften considerably.
If you like, you can put them in a paper bag and allow them to steam for about 5 minutes, and then peel them. I didn’t.
Pour the oil and vinegar into a bowl and toss with the peppers. Allow to marinate at least an hour. Salt and pepper lightly to taste.
Seres 4 as a side dish.
