How to prepare cold grilled zucchini rolls
Start preparing the cold grilled zucchini rolls by slicing the zucchini using a vegetable peeler or a mandoline,
Heat up the grill pan and when it’s hot, grill the zucchini slices on both sides and set them aside.
Grill the chicken breast slices as well,
then cut them into small pieces,
place them on a plate and season with salt and oil.
Lay out a piece of plastic wrap on the counter, arrange the grilled zucchini slices neatly to form a rectangle
and add a little salt.
Spread the spreadable cheese on top of the zucchini slices,
on the lower half add some arugula,
the chicken breast,
and avocado or, if you prefer, cucumber,
add soy sauce or alternatively season with salt and oil.
Using the plastic wrap, roll up to form a tight roll, close with the plastic wrap, and place in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Retrieve the roll and slice into pieces about 0.8 inches thick and serve.
