Ingredients
- 1/4 cup Olive Oil
- 1/4 cup White Wine Vinegar
- 6 1/2 Orange Zest thin slices for garnishing (no white pith)
- 1 teaspoon Thyme chopped
- Ground White Pepper
- 12 Baby Leeks
Directions
Combine the oil, vinegar, orange zest, thyme, and pepper in a bowl and let stand while you prepare the leeks.
To remove the grit from small leeks, split down the middle lengthwise to 2 inches from the base. Rinse the grit out from between the layers and shake dry. Trim off about 3 inches of the green top and trim the base leaving the root intact. Marinate 15 to 30 minutes in the oil-vinegar mixture.
On an open grill over medium-hot coals, grill the leeks on all sides until brown and tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
