Grilled Lemon Garlic Zucchini Food

GRILLED LEMON GARLIC ZUCCHINI

Steps:

• Mix first three ingredients together in shallow bowl and let them sit for around 15 minutes.
• Making sure the grill is nice and hot, dip the zucchini slices into the marinade and place them directly on the grill. Use tongs for the best results.
• Remember to flip them once you feel that one side is nicely browned.
• Cook until desired amount of tenderness is reached, or until both sides have grill marks and can be stabbed easily with a fork.
• Note: If using a smaller zucchini cut into a shape that works for your grill, you wouldn't want the slices to fall between the bars. I usually end up using ridiculously large zucchinis (diameter around 3 inches or larger).

GRILLED ZUCCHINI WITH YUMMY LEMON SALT

Steps:

• Lop off the tops and bottoms of the zucchini and quarter them lengthwise. Place in a very large resealable plastic bag (or two regular-size bags). Drizzle in the olive oil, then add 1 teaspoon salt,1 teaspoon pepper, 1 tablespoon lemon zest and the lemon juice. Seal the bag and smoosh everything around a bit so that the zucchini is coated. Set aside for 15 to 20 minutes to marinate.
• Preheat a grill to medium. Grill the zucchini, turning, until nice and tender, being careful not to burn it, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove the zucchini to a plate as it gets done.
• Pile up the rest of the lemon zest on a cutting board and sprinkle 1 tablespoon salt on top. Use a knife to chop the salt and zest together until it becomes lemon salt. Add more salt if it needs it. Sprinkle the lemon salt over the grilled zucchini.

GRILLED ZUCCHINI WITH GARLIC AND LEMON BUTTER BASTE

Steps:

• Score cut side of zucchini halves diagonally about 1/4 inch deep at 1 inch intervals.
• Melt butter with lemon juice, lemon-pepper seasoning. garlic powder, oregano, and curry powder in a small heavy saucepan. Season with salt and pepper.
• Brush seasoned butter on cut side of zucchini.
• Grill until charred (browned) on all sides and just beginning to soften, about 12 minutes.
• Arrange zucchini on grill, cut side up, and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, close lid of barbecue and cook until cheese just softens, about 1 minute.

ZUCCHINI FRITTERS WITH LEMONY SOUR CREAM

Steps:

• Trim and coarsely shred zucchini into a large bowl. Add 1 teaspoon salt; toss to coat. Let stand, stirring occasionally, 10 minutes. Meanwhile, beat together egg, green onions, and pepper in another bowl.
• Transfer zucchini to a clean kitchen towel; squeeze to remove as much liquid as possible. Stir zucchini and flour into egg mixture.
• Heat a griddle or extra-large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil; brush or swirl to coat pan. Drop mixture in 6 mounds onto the hot griddle, then flatten slightly with a spatula. Cook, turning halfway through, until golden brown on both sides, 5 to 7 minutes.
• For lemony sour cream, whisk sour cream, lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic, and remaining pinch of salt together in a small bowl. Sprinkle with zest and pepper; serve with fritters.
