Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 cup olive oil
4 garlic cloves, peeled
1/2 teaspoon coarse kosher salt plus additional for sprinkling
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 pound baby zucchini, trimmed

Steps:

  • Blend oil, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper in blender until almost smooth. Using fork or wooden skewer, pierce zucchini all over. Place in medium bowl. Pour garlic oil over zucchini and let stand at room temperature at least 30 minutes and up to 1 hour, tossing occasionally.
  • Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Grill zucchini until tender and golden in spots, turning occasionally, about 6 minutes. Transfer to plate, sprinkle with additional salt, and serve.
