Grilled Zucchini with Portobello and Goat Cheese image

I was itching to do a recipe with mushrooms and goat cheese, and this is what I came up with. It works as an entree or a side dish, and can be served alongside other grilled recipes. Using an outdoor grill will shorten the total prep time.

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

½ cup garlic and herb marinade
2 zucchini, halved lengthwise
2 gold zucchini, halved lengthwise
2 portobello mushroom caps
¼ cup pine nuts
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large shallot, diced
2 plum tomatoes, chopped
10 leaves basil, chopped
3 ounces goat cheese
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Pour marinade into a shallow bowl. Add zucchini, gold zucchini, and mushrooms. Let marinate, flipping occasionally, 10 to 15 minutes.

  • Transfer skillet to the preheated oven; broil, keeping oven door open, until goat cheese is golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Sprinkle toasted pine nuts and chives over goat cheese.

I'm not usually a fan of zucchini, but this recipe changed my mind. The zucchini was grilled to perfection and had a slightly smoky flavor.

This is a great vegetarian dish that's also packed with flavor. The zucchini and mushrooms are grilled until they're tender and slightly charred, and the goat cheese adds a nice richness.
