Recipe: Grilled Zucchini with Strong Flavors (using currants, capers, balsamic vinegar a
Side Dishes - VegetablesGRILLED ZUCCHINI WITH STRONG FLAVORS
1/4 cup olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced, about 1 teaspoon
1 tablespoon dried currants (or finely chopped raisins)
1 tablespoon capers
1 tablespoon cider or balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup (about 2 ounces) crumbled feta cheese
1/4 teaspoon (freshly ground) black pepper
4 small zucchini, about 1 1/4 pounds
1/8 teaspoon salt
Heat the grill to high or preheat broiler.
Combine garlic and olive oil; set aside.
In a medium bowl, combine currants, capers, vinegar, feta and pepper; set aside.
Trim the stem end of zucchini, and slice zucchini lengthwise in half or in thirds, to make slices about 1/4-inch thick (thicker slices are fine; they'll just take a little longer to cook).
Brush zucchini with garlic oil, and grill or broil until tender and spotted brown, turning the slices over only once. Reserve remaining garlic oil.
As the zucchini slices are done, put them in the bowl with the vinegar mixture. Add remaining garlic oil, if any. Stir to mix evenly. Taste, and add salt and more olive oil if desired.
Makes 4 servings
