Grilled zucchini is one of the great food joys of summer. In this easy recipe, the crunchy, bright breadcrumbs offset the sweet, soft zucchini in the most delightful way.

Categories     Healthy Grilled Squash Recipes

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 10

¼ cup olive oil
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper, or to taste
½ cup whole-wheat panko breadcrumbs
2 ounces Parmesan cheese, grated (about 1/2 cup)
1 ½ teaspoons fresh thyme leaves or 1 teaspoon dried thyme, crushed
1 teaspoon lemon zest
¼ teaspoon salt
2 large zucchini, halved lengthwise
Lemon wedges for serving

Steps:

  • Combine oil, garlic and crushed red pepper in a small skillet over low heat. Cook, stirring often, until the garlic is softened and light golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat; let cool for 5 minutes. Stir in panko, Parmesan, thyme, lemon zest and salt.
  • Preheat grill to very high (at least 500 degrees F). Oil the grill grates, using tongs to hold an oil-soaked paper towel. Place zucchini, cut-sides down, on the oiled grates; grill, uncovered, until tender-crisp, about 5 minutes per side. Flip the zucchini so they are cut-side up; spoon the panko mixture evenly on top. Grill, covered, until the topping is golden brown in spots, 2 to 3 minutes. Carefully transfer to a serving platter. Serve with lemon wedges.

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 medium zucchini (2 1/2 to 3 pounds total)
Good olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon minced garlic (3 cloves)
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley leaves
2 tablespoons julienned fresh basil leaves
1/2 cup freshly grated Italian Parmesan cheese
3/4 cup panko (Japanese bread flakes)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.

Place the zucchini in one layer on a sheet pan, brush generously all over with olive oil, and turn the zucchini cut side down. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and roast for 12 to 15 minutes, until just tender but still firm when tested with the tip of a small paring knife.

ZUCCHINI WITH PARMESAN

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 medium zucchini
Good olive oil
2 large yellow onions cut in half and sliced 1/2 inch thick
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Remove the ends of the zucchini and, if they are large, cut in half lengthwise. Slice the zucchini diagonally in 1/2-inch slices. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large (12-inch) saute pan and add the onions. Cook for 10 minutes on medium-low heat, until they start to brown. Add half the zucchini, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper to the pan and cook, tossing occasionally, for 10 to 15 minutes, until just cooked through. Sprinkle with Parmesan and cook for 30 seconds more. Remove to a serving platter and repeat with the rest of the zucchini. Serve immediately.
  • Note: If you cook too much zucchini in one pan, you end up steaming rather than sauteing it. I prefer to cook it in 2 batches.

Tips:

  • Choose small to medium zucchini: These will cook more evenly and have a better texture than larger zucchini.
  • Slice the zucchini into thin, even slices: This will help them cook quickly and evenly.
  • Use a grill pan or outdoor grill that is well-oiled: This will prevent the zucchini from sticking and will help create those beautiful grill marks.
  • Grill the zucchini over medium-high heat: This will help them cook quickly and evenly without burning.
  • Cook the zucchini for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are tender and slightly charred: Be careful not to overcook them, or they will become mushy.
  • Serve the grilled zucchini immediately: You can top them with a variety of ingredients, such as Italian tomatoes, Parmesan cheese, basil, or a balsamic glaze.

Conclusion:

Grilled zucchini is a delicious and healthy summer side dish that is easy to make. With just a few simple ingredients and a few minutes on the grill, you can have a flavorful and nutritious dish that is perfect for any occasion. So next time you're firing up the grill, be sure to add zucchini to your menu. You won't be disappointed!
