Why Make This Recipe

Grilled Zucchini Planks with Feta is a delicious and healthy dish that’s easy to prepare. This recipe showcases the natural flavors of zucchini, enhanced with a tangy marinade and creamy feta. It’s perfect for summer cookouts, barbecues, or a light side dish. Plus, it’s a great way to add some greens to your meal while keeping it simple and tasty!

How to Make Grilled Zucchini Planks with Feta

Ingredients:

2 medium zucchinis
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
Fresh herbs (such as parsley or basil) for garnish

Directions:

Slice the zucchinis lengthwise into planks.
In a bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper to create the marinade.
Place the zucchini planks in the marinade and let them soak for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Remove the zucchini from the marinade and grill for about 3-4 minutes on each side until tender and have grill marks.
Remove from the grill and sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese and fresh herbs before serving.

How to Serve Grilled Zucchini Planks with Feta

You can serve Grilled Zucchini Planks with Feta as a standalone side dish or as part of a larger meal. They pair nicely with grilled meats, fish, or even as a topping on salads. For a more complete meal, serve them with some grilled chicken or a light pasta.

How to Store Grilled Zucchini Planks with Feta

If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge. They should stay fresh for about 2-3 days. You can also reheat them on the grill or in a pan, but keep in mind that zucchini can become softer when reheated.

Tips to Make Grilled Zucchini Planks with Feta

Try to marinate the zucchini for longer than 30 minutes if you have the time; this will enhance the flavor even more.
Don’t overcrowd the grill. You want the zucchini to cook evenly and get nice grill marks.
If you can’t find feta cheese, goat cheese is a tasty alternative.

Variation

You can add other spices or herbs to the marinade to customize the flavor. For example, a sprinkle of red pepper flakes can add a nice kick, or you can use fresh herbs like dill for a different taste.

FAQs

1. Can I use other vegetables for this recipe?
Yes! You can use bell peppers, eggplant, or asparagus, but adjust the grilling time as needed.

2. Is this recipe suitable for a vegan diet?
To make it vegan, simply omit the feta cheese or use a vegan cheese alternative.

3. Can I bake the zucchini instead of grilling?
Absolutely! You can place the marinated zucchini planks on a baking sheet and roast them in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 15-20 minutes instead of grilling.
