View the previous recipe for this meal.

Zucchini grills up beautifully when cut into disks, skewered and laid on the grill with a rub of olive oil, salt & pepper. Embellish the flavor with your favorite herbs to make this fancy and make it your own. Just chop the herbs up & sprinkle on afterwards.

Ingredients

  • 2 zucchinis, washed & dried
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Serving Size: 2 People

Preparation Instructions

Soak your skewers if they are wooden.

Cut the zucchini into 1 inch slices, discarding the ends.

Pour the olive oil in a small plate and dip in the zucchini slices. Sprinkle each side generously with salt & pepper.

Heat a grill or grill pan to medium high heat.

Thread the zucchini slices on to the skewer, piercing through the skin.

Place the zucchini skewers flat against the grill. Sear for about 5-10 minutes until grill marks appear. Flip over and repeat on the other side.

Serve hot.
