  • 3 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Zucchini:

    • Wash and trim the ends of the zucchinis.
    • Cut each zucchini lengthwise into quarters, creating spears.

  3. Grill the Zucchini:

    • Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

    • Grill for about 3-4 minutes on each side, until grill marks appear and the zucchini is tender.

    • In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, parsley, basil, and minced garlic.
    • Mix well to blend the flavors.
  5. Serve:

    • Once the zucchini spears are grilled, transfer them to a serving platter.

Tips for Perfect Grilled Zucchini:

  • Choose Fresh Zucchini: Opt for firm, medium-sized zucchinis without blemishes for the best texture and flavor.
  • Uniform Cutting: Ensure the zucchini spears are cut to a uniform size for even cooking.
  • Preheat the Grill: A properly preheated grill prevents sticking and gives perfect grill marks.
  • Don’t Overcook: Zucchini cooks quickly; keep an eye on it to avoid a mushy texture.
