Ingredients
- 4 medium zucchini, halved lengthwise
- 3 tablespoons melted unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley
- 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons fresh lemon zest
- 1/2 teaspoon white pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 garlic clove, crushed
- Fresh lemon wedges and chopped parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your grill. Score the fleshy cut side of the zucchini halves with a few small shallow slits. This will help the butter sauce to penetrate the veggies; it will also make them cook quicker and more evenly. Place the zucchini slices skin side down, cut side up on a plate.
- Whisk together melted butter, parsley, lemon juice, lemon zest, white pepper, salt and garlic.
- Baste the cut side of the zucchini generously with the melted butter sauce.
- Place the zucchini on a medium hot grill, green sides down, basted sides up.
- Grill the zucchini for 6 minutes, then flip. Continue to grill for another 6-8 minutes till tender.
- Serve garnished with fresh lemon wedges and chopped parsley, if desired. Goes great with tzatziki sauce.
