Steps:

• First, preheat your outside grill to medium heat.
• Next, slice zucchini lengthwise into thick strips, about 1/4-inch thick, with a sharp knife or a vegetable slicer.
• In a large baking pan, sprinkle generously with garlic powder and black pepper. Then drizzle extra virgin olive oil over them, start with 2 tablespoons.
• Then toss, using with your hands to blend them evenly. No salt is needed. But if you prefer, you can add a generous pinch of salt. Also, if you need a little more olive oil to coat them, then drizzle an additional 1 tablespoon and toss again to coat evenly.
• Next, use kitchen tongs to place the zucchini onto the grill, horizontally. Cover or close the lid and cook for about 4 to 6 minutes. Flip the zucchini over and close the lid again. Continue to cook for an additional 5 to 7 minutes, or until the zucchini is tender.
• When zucchini is tender, remove from heat and transfer to a serving platter. Lightly drizzle over them with additional extra virgin olive oil, about 1 tablespoon. Garnish with fresh basil on the side or top. Then serve.
