Description

Savor the vibrant flavors of summer with this easy grilled zucchini recipe, perfect for your Memorial Day BBQ gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium zucchinis, sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Fresh herbs (basil or parsley), for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and clean the grates to prevent sticking.
  2. In a large bowl, combine zucchini slices, olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss well until evenly coated.
  3. Place the zucchini directly on the grill in a single layer. Grill each side for about 3-4 minutes until you see grill marks.
  4. In the last minute of grilling, sprinkle fresh herbs over the zucchini for added flavor.
  5. Remove from the grill and serve immediately with optional lemon juice or additional herbs as garnish.

Notes

  • To enhance flavor, marinate zucchini slices in your favorite dressing before grilling.
  •  Substitute different spices or add crumbled feta cheese for an extra kick.
