  1. Make the vinaigrette by whisking together all of the ingredients in a small bowl. Taste and re-season if necessary.
  2. Toss the zucchini with olive oil then season with sea salt and pepper in a bowl.
  3. Grill the zucchini on the grill (or in a grill pan) on one side until the grill marks appear, about 2 minutes.
  4. Flip wedges and grill for an additional 1-2 minutes. Cut each quarter in half crosswise, and return to the bowl.
