Grilled Zucchini Salad is a vibrant, flavorful dish that celebrates the essence of summer. The smoky char from the grill perfectly complements the tender, juicy zucchini, while the zesty lemon dressing elevates the entire dish to new heights.
Ingredients
Scale:
4 medium-sized Zucchini
3 tablespoons Olive oil
1 teaspoon Salt
½ teaspoon Pepper
2 tablespoons Lemon juice
¼ cup, chopped Fresh parsley
½ cup, crumbled Feta cheese (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F).
Wash and dry the zucchini thoroughly. Slice them into ½-inch thick rounds or strips for even cooking.
In a large bowl, toss the zucchini slices with olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
Place the zucchini on the preheated grill. Grill for 4-5 minutes on each side or until grill marks appear and the zucchini is tender.
Remove the zucchini from the grill and let it cool for a few minutes before chopping it into bite-sized pieces.
In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice and additional olive oil, if desired. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper.
In a large serving bowl, combine the grilled zucchini, chopped parsley, and feta cheese (if using). Drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.
Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to let the flavors meld.
