Yield Serves 4 as a side dish

Number Of Ingredients 5

7 Kalamata or other brine-cured black olives (about 1/4 cup)
1 1/2 pounds zucchini (about 3 large)
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh mint leaves
1 1/2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Prepare grill.
  • Pit and thinly slice olives. Cut zucchini diagonally into 1/4-inch-thick slices and in a bowl toss with oil and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Grill zucchini, in batches if necessary, on a rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until lightly charred and just tender. (Alternatively, zucchini may be grilled in a hot well-seasoned heavy ridged grill pan over moderately high heat.) Transfer zucchini to bowl and toss with olives, mint, and lemon juice.

This is a great recipe for a summer cookout. The zucchini is grilled to perfection and the black olives and mint add a nice touch of flavor. I served this with grilled chicken and it was a delicious meal.
