Grilled zucchini, tasty and delightful, are perfect as an appetizer, but also as a side dish or to offer at a buffet. The recipe is very easy and also quick. I dressed them with extra virgin olive oil, garlic, and oregano, but if you want, you can add some chili pepper for a spicier taste, or simply substitute the oregano with parsley, mint, or thyme.

Once dressed, let them rest for about an hour: the result will be even better, although they are good eaten immediately. Try them, I’m sure they will win you over.

Let’s see together how to make the Grilled Zucchini recipe. Prepare the ingredients, let’s begin.

And if you try them, don’t forget to let me know in the comments on my Facebook page HERE. I’ll be waiting.

Ingredients

3 zucchini
extra virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic
dried oregano (or parsley)
leaves mint (optional)

Tools

1 Grill Pan
1 Mandoline

Steps

First, wash the zucchini and trim them; then, using a mandoline (or a slicer), slice them lengthwise to a thickness of about 1/8 inch, then place one layer in a colander and sprinkle with fine salt, then cover with another layer and salt, and so on. Place a plate on top and set a pot full of water on it as a weight: this will help to remove most of the water.
Once ready, place them on kitchen paper and heat the grill pan (or the grill). Once hot, lightly oil the plate and use a kitchen brush on the zucchini and place them to grill for a few minutes on both sides.
Using tongs, place them on a plate and then directly on the serving dish. Make a first layer, season with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, very fine pieces of garlic (to taste), and a sprinkle of oregano (or parsley), and continue this way until you have used all the zucchini.
Here are the Grilled Zucchini ready. Enjoy your meal!
