     1/2      teaspoon  paprika
     1/2      teaspoon  salt

  3        tablespoons  fresh lemon juice
     1/3           cup  olive oil
  4              large  shallots -- halved lengthwise

1. In a blender or food processor, combine the parsley, cilantro, and
garlic and process until finely minced. Add the coriander, cumin, paprika,
salt, cayenne, lemon juice, and oil. Process until smooth. Transfer to a
small bowl.

2. Preheat the grill. Thread the bell pepper, eggplant, zucchini,
mushrooms, and tomatoes onto skewers and arrange them in a shallow baking
dish. Pour about half of the charmoula sauce over the skewered vegetables
and marinate at room temperature for 20 minutes.

3. Place the skewered vegetables on the hot grill directly over the heat
source. Grill until the vegetables are browned and tender, turning once
halfway through the grilling, about 10 minutes total. Transfer to a
platter and spoon the remaining sauce over all. Serve immediately.

Serves 4

Variation: Broiled Vegetable Skewers: Arrange the skewered vegetables on a
broiler pan and place under the broiler, about 4 inches from the heat.
Broil until cooked on the inside and browned on the outside, about 8
minutes total, turning once halfway through
