How to Make Grilled Zucchini
Let’s start preparing the Grilled Zucchini, wash the zucchini and trim the ends. Slice the zucchini finely, about 1/8 to 1/6 inch thick, aiming for slices of the same thickness for even cooking, so use a sharp knife or a mandoline.
Heat the grill pan or skillet, and when it’s hot, lay the zucchini slices on it and let them cook for a couple of minutes, turning them to cook on both sides.
When they are cooked, place them on a serving platter, sprinkle with salt and pepper. If you have a garlic press, press the garlic clove to extract the juice and add it to a bowl; if not, finely chop the garlic clove.
Add a few tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil to the bowl with the garlic and mix with a fork to emulsify well.
Now pour the garlic-flavored oil over the freshly cooked and still warm zucchini and let it sit for half an hour before serving. Cover the Grilled Zucchini with plastic wrap.
How to Store Grilled Zucchini
