Grilled Zucchini for your Grilling day!

Getting out the Grill for Fourth of July?

Try this great Grilled Zucchini recipe. 

I originally distributed this recipe back when I started lecturing in 1995, it is a quick and easy way to use rosemary when it is fresh and less pungent as well as make a compound butter you can save for use with  many other vegetables and a grilled steak too!


Grilled Zucchini with fresh rosemary butter
(serves 3 to 4)



Rosemary butter:

2 scallions, white part only, finely chopped

2 Tbls. finely chopped fresh rosemary leaves

1/4 tsp. freshly ground pepper

12 tsp. lemon juice

1/2 tsp. finely grated lemon rind

pinch ground cayenne pepper

1/2 c. salted butter, at room temperature



Grilled Zucchini:

6 medium zucchini

olive oil



Thoroughly blend together the rosemary butter ingredients, then transfer to a deep custard dish or butter server, or place a 12 inch long roll in plastic wrap and roll into a 1 inch thick log.  Chill the herb butter slightly to firm and let flavors blend.



Slice zucchini lengthwise into thirds so you have long slices about 1/2 inch thick.  Brush with olive oil. Grill or broil them until cooked and soft inside.  Top each zucchini slice with a portion of the rosemary butter and serve.
