Ingredients
Scale
- 4 medium Zucchini, sliced into thick rounds; can substitute with yellow squash
- 1/4 cup Unsalted Butter, melted; olive oil can be used for a healthier option
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced; increases flavor intensity when fresh
- 1 teaspoon Salt, adjust to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper, freshly cracked preferred
- 1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning, a great herbal mix
- Skewers, as needed; use metal skewers or soak wooden ones for 30 minutes before grilling
Instructions
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
- Mix melted butter, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning in a bowl until combined.
- Thread zucchini slices onto the skewers, packing them evenly.
- Brush garlic butter mixture over the assembled skewers.
- Place skewers on the grill and cook for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until zucchini is tender and slightly charred.
- Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
Ensure zucchini slices are of uniform thickness to promote even cooking. Fresh garlic enhances the flavor compared to dried garlic. Pair with a refreshing dip to elevate your appetizer game.
