Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients

  

• 2 medium-sized zucchini
• 1 feta cheese
• 1 clove garlic minced
• 1 tsp Italian seasoning or your favourite dried herbs
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 2 tsp fresh lemon zest
• wooden skewers soaked in water for 15 min if using a BBQ

Method

 

1. Prep the Zucchini: Using a vegetable peeler or mandoline, slice the zucchini lengthwise into long, thin ribbons and set aside.
2. Cube & Marinate: Cut the block of feta cheese into bite-sized cubes (don't overhang the zucchini ribbon). In a shallow dish, whisk together the minced garlic, olive oil, lemon zest, and Italian seasoning. Gently toss the feta cubes in the mixture until well-coated.
3. Roll & Skewer: Lay a zucchini ribbon flat on a cutting board. Place a marinated feta cube at one end and tightly roll the zucchini around it. Secure onto a skewer. Repeat until all ribbons are used.
4. Grill to Perfection: Preheat the barbecue or indoor grill pan to medium-high heat. Grill the zucchini skewers for a few minutes on each side, or until golden brown grill marks appear.
5. Serve: Eat right from the skewers for easy finger food, or slide onto a platter.

Notes
