Grilled Zucchini Squash Recipes

GRILLED ZUCCHINI AND SQUASH

Steps:

• Preheat grill for medium-high heat.
• Place the zucchini, and squash on a large sheet of aluminum foil, and dot with butter. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Seal vegetables in the foil.
• Place the foil pack on the preheated grill, and cook 20 minutes, until vegetables are tender.

GRILLED ZUCCHINI & SQUASH

Steps:

• Slice your zucchini and squash into circles 1/3 to 1/2 inch thick. (I would not go any thinner than 1/3 inch.)
• Preheat your grill to medium heat.
• In a large bowl add your vegetable slices, olive oil, and seasonings. Use your hands or a spoon to move around the veggies until they're lightly coated.
• Lay zucchini and squash slices on the grill. We'll use any remaining oil at the end so just leave it in the bowl. Grill for 4 to 5 minutes per side (8 to 10 minutes total) or until you achieve the desired softness.
• Remove from grill and plate. Drizzle remaining oil/herb/seasoning mixture over your grilled zucchini and squash.

MARINATED AND GRILLED ZUCCHINI AND SUMMER SQUASH

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium. In a large bowl, gently toss zucchini, squash, oil, vinegar, and oregano; season with salt and pepper. Working in batches if necessary, lift vegetables from marinade, and grill, covered, turning once, until tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Reserve marinade. (To store, refrigerate vegetables and remaining marinade separately, up to 1 day.) Drizzle grilled vegetables with remaining marinade, and serve.

BALSAMIC GRILLED ZUCCHINI

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.

MARINATED AND GRILLED ZUCCHINI AND SUMMER SQUASH

Steps:

• Whisk together the vinegar, lemon juice, garlic and thyme in a large bowl.
• Season with salt and pepper and gradually whisk in the olive oil.
• Slice both of the squash diagonally into 1/4" thick slices.
• Spoon 3 tablespoons of the marinade into a small bowl, cover and set aside.
• Add all the squash to the remaining marinade in the large bowl and toss to coat.
• Transfer the mixture to a 13x9 glass baking dish, cover and marinate at room temperature for at least 3 hours.
• Can also be refrigerated for up to one day to marinate.
• Season squash with a little additional salt and pepper and grill on the barbecue or on an indoor grill pan until they are crisp tender and brown, turning occasionally for about 8 minutes.
• Transfer squash to a serving platter and drizzle with the reserved 3 tablespoons of marinade.
• Serve hot or at room temperature.
