Grill up some summer vibes with these Easy Garlic Butter Zucchini Skewers! Bursting with flavor from garlic-infused butter, they’re a delightful side or snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium zucchinis, sliced into 1/2-inch thick rounds
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat while you prepare the skewers. If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for about 30 minutes to prevent burning.
  2. Step 2: In a mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, dried oregano, and lemon juice. Stir well to create a flavorful garlic butter mixture.
  3. Step 3: Add the sliced zucchini to the bowl and toss until all pieces are evenly coated with the garlic butter mixture.
  4. Step 4: Thread the zucchini slices onto the prepared skewers. You can alternate with cherry tomatoes or bell pepper pieces for added color and flavor if desired.
  5. Step 5: Place the skewers on the preheated grill and cook for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until they are tender and have nice grill marks.
  6. Step 6: Once cooked, remove from the grill and sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy your delicious garlic butter zucchini skewers!

Notes

  • For optimal freshness, store any leftover garlic butter zucchini skewers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • To reheat the skewers, simply place them on a grill or in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5-10 minutes until warmed through, maintaining their delicious flavor and texture.
  • Serve your skewers alongside grilled meats or as a vibrant addition to a summer salad for a refreshing meal that's sure to impress.
  • For an extra burst of flavor, consider adding freshly grated Parmesan cheese on top before serving or mixing in different herbs like thyme or basil into your garlic butter mixture!
