Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium zucchinis (sliced on the diagonal 1/2 inch thick)
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • Balsamic reduction (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a shallow baking dish, mix olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Add zucchini slices, tossing well to coat. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Allow the zucchini to marinate while preheating your grill over medium-high heat (500-600°F).
  3. Oil the grill grates using a spray or brush. Place marinated zucchini on the grill and cook for about 2 minutes per side, adjusting time based on thickness until tender but not mushy.
  4. Lower grill heat and sprinkle parmesan on each slice. Close lid for one more minute to melt cheese.
  5. Serve warm with extra balsamic vinegar or drizzle with balsamic reduction.
