Chargrilled Zucchini Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat grill for medium-low heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Brush zucchini with olive oil. Sprinkle garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and salt over zucchini.
• Cook on preheated grill until beginning to brown, 3-4 minutes per side. Brush balsamic vinegar over the zucchini and continue cooking 1 minute more. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium-high and clean and oil the grate. (Or preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.)
• Marinate the zucchini in 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, the lemon juice and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Set aside for at least 30 minutes. In a separate dish, brush the sliced halloumi with 1 teaspoon of the olive oil. Peel the onion and cut it into 1/2-inch wedges through the core to hold each wedge together. Marinate the onion in 1 teaspoon olive oil and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt.
• Grill the zucchini until it has dark grill marks and is tender. Toss immediately in a bowl with the garlic and mint; then set aside. Grill the onion wedges, turning once, until they are slightly charred on the edges and a bit softened but not totally limp. Grill the halloumi until softened and marked by the grill.
• Slice the baguette lengthwise, leaving one side slightly attached. Brush with the remaining teaspoon of the olive oil. Cut crosswise into four even segments. Distribute the zucchini, halloumi and onions evenly among the sandwiches.

Steps:

• Place a griddle pan over a high heat and pour in a little of the olive oil.
• Slice the zucchini and add to the hot pan. Season with coarse sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side or until well charred.
• Lay on a serving dish and sprinkle over more olive oil, lemon juice and the cheese. Serve.
