Time 1h6m

Yield 1 pound zucchini

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 cup olive oil
4 -5 whole fresh garlic cloves
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (more for sprinkling)
1/4-1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper (or to taste)
1 lb baby zucchini (ends trimmed and do not slice)

Steps:

  • In a blender blend oil with garlic cloves, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and black pepper.
  • Using a fork or a wooden skewer pierce holes all over the zucchini.
  • Place in a glass shallow dish (I use my 11 x 7-inch baking dish to marinate).
  • Pour the oil over all over the zucchini then turn with hands to coat.
  • Allow to stand for 1-2 hours at room temperature.
  • Heat grill to medium-high heat.
  • Grill zucchini until tender and golden in spots turning occasionally (this should take about 6-7 minutes).
  • Transfer to serving plate then sprinkle with a little kosher salt.
  • Delicious!
