Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 zucchini, halved lengthwise
1 large onion, cut into 1/2-inch-thick rings
2 ears of fresh corn, shucked
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons salt
1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1 garlic clove, minced
1 lemon
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Prepare a hot grill.
  • Place the zucchini, onions, and corn on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the oil and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of the salt. Toss the vegetables to ensure that they are well coated.
  • Place the vegetables on the hot grill. As they begin to brown, turn them carefully so that they brown fully on all sides but stay intact, about 3 minutes per side. Remove the vegetables from the grill and let cool slightly.
  • Cut the grilled corn kernels from the cobs and place in a bowl. Add the cherry tomatoes, the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 teaspoon salt, the parsley, and garlic. Squeeze the lemon into the bowl and stir to combine.
  • Arrange the grilled zucchini on a serving platter. Cut the onion rings in half and drape them over the zucchini. Spoon the tomato and corn mixture over the zucchini and onions. Finish with a grind of pepper and serve warm. Alternatively, make the dish ahead and serve at room temperature.
  • GRILLING TIPS
  • We like to cut our veggies on the larger side for grilling so they don't burn quickly. We turn them a few times to keep the insides tender while the outside takes on that ideal smoky char. It's important to remember that your meat and veggies continue to cook after you've pulled them off the grill, so be sure to let the meat rest for 5 minutes before serving and take care to remove the vegetables before they overcook.
