This grilled zucchini side dish with garlic butter and melted Parmesan is a summer favorite at my house. So easy and tasty, and complements grilled steak, ribs, chicken, or fish.
Ingredients
- 3 zucchini
- 3 tablespoons butter , softened
- 2 cloves garlic , minced
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
- 0.5 cups freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
-
1
Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
-
2
Cut the zucchini in half crosswise, then slice each half into 3 slices lengthwise, making 6 slices per zucchini.
-
3
Mix the butter, garlic, and parsley in a bowl, and spread the mixture on both sides of each zucchini slice. Sprinkle one side of each slice with Parmesan cheese, and place the slices, cheese sides up, crosswise on the preheated grill to keep them from falling through.

4
Grill the zucchini until the cheese has melted and the slices are cooked through and show grill marks, about 8 minutes.

No-Knead Cinnamon Rolls
These no-knead cinnamon rolls are gobbled up as soon as my family sees them. I'll never try another cinnamon roll recipe because I think these are the best. Note: These are wonderful fresh, but they do not freeze well.
Zucchini Corn Fritters
These zucchini corn fritters are full of grated zucchini and fresh corn. Cheese is optional, but not in my house! They're light and fluffy, and my family can't get enough of them. Serve hot with ranch dressing.
Hangtown Fry with Parmesan and Fresh Herbs
My recipe variation on Hangtown Fry contains Parmesan cheese and fresh herbs. It is finished under the broiler, where the egg-oyster mixture puffs up like a cross between a frittata and a soufflé. I get the best results using a cast-iron skillet. It's important that the oven be hot before you place the skillet under the broiler.
