Description

Delicious garlic butter zucchini skewers that elevate simple zucchinis into a flavorful and vibrant side dish, perfect for summer gatherings.


Ingredients

  • 2 medium zucchinis
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • Skewers (wooden or metal)


Instructions

  1. If using wooden skewers, soak them for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Wash and cut the zucchinis into thick slices or half-moons.
  3. Melt the unsalted butter over low heat in a small saucepan, then add the minced garlic.
  4. Stir and let the garlic infuse in the melted butter for about 3 minutes.
  5. Season the zucchini pieces with salt and pepper.
  6. Thread the zucchini onto the soaked skewers.
  7. Brush the garlic butter generously over each skewer.
  8. Preheat the grill to medium heat and place the skewers on it.
  9. Cook for approximately 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the zucchini is tender and lightly charred.

Notes

Experiment with adding herbs like thyme or oregano to the butter for added flavor. Marinating the zucchini in garlic butter beforehand enhances the taste.
