Grilled Zucchini With Salsa Food

GRILLED ZUCCHINI WITH HERB SALT AND FETA

Steps:

• For the herb salt: Combine the salt, oregano and thyme in a small bowl and mix to blend.
• For the grilled zucchini: Brush the zucchini planks on both sides with olive oil and sprinkle on both sides with some of the herb salt. Transfer the zucchini to a grill pan set over medium heat and cook until tender, about 5 minutes, flipping halfway through. Remove the zucchini to a serving plate and sprinkle with the feta.

ZUCCHINI WITH SALSA

Steps:

• Over medium heat melt the butter and oil in a large skillet and add the onions and sauté until tender, add garlic and cook stirring for about another minute.
• Add wine, zucchini, salt, pepper and ground ginger stir to combine and continue cooking over medium heat, stirring until zucchini begins to soften.
• Place a cover on the skillet, and continue cooking over medium low heat until just tender, but still a little crunchy (usually about 15-20 minutes) stir occasionally. Add salsa and honey during the last few minutes, stir to combine and continue cooking until salsa has heated through.
• Serve and enjoy.

BALSAMIC GRILLED ZUCCHINI

Steps:

• Preheat grill for medium-low heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Brush zucchini with olive oil. Sprinkle garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and salt over zucchini.
• Cook on preheated grill until beginning to brown, 3-4 minutes per side. Brush balsamic vinegar over the zucchini and continue cooking 1 minute more. Serve immediately.

SPAGHETTI WITH GRILLED SHRIMP, ZUCCHINI AND SALSA VERDE

Steps:

• Put the parsley, capers, garlic, lemon juice, anchovy paste, mustard, ½ teaspoon of the salt and the pepper into a food processor or blender. Pulse to chop.
• With the machine running, add the ½ cup oil in a thin stream to make a coarse puree.
• Set aside. Pulse to re-emulsify just before adding to the pasta.
• Light the grill or heat the broiler. Brush the zucchini with 1 tablespoon of the oil and sprinkle with ¼ teaspoon of the salt.
• Grill or broil the zucchini, turning, until just done, about 10 minutes.
• When the slices are cool enough to handle, cut them crosswise into ½ inch pieces and put them in a large bowl.
• Thread the shrimp onto skewers.
• Brush the shrimp with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and sprinkle with the remaining salt.
• Grill or broil the shrimp, turning, until just done, about 4 minutes. Remove the shrimp from the skewers and slice them in half horizontally, and add them to the zucchini.
• Meanwhile, in a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook the spaghetti until just done, about 12 minutes. Drain.
• Add the pasta to the gilled zucchini and shrimp and toss with the salsa verde.
