Cast Iron Grilled Zucchini Recipe

This Cast Iron Grilled Zucchini Recipe is now a new favorite grilling recipe of mine.  Now I have done meats and a couple of veggies with bacon in my cast iron, but this was my first time grilling just a vegetable.   I already had some steaks going on the grill so I took a gamble and tried this out, thankfully it was a success!  (I have included affiliate links to products I love.

Now butter isn’t the healthiest option, but it may be one of the tastiest options to cook this up with.  I use my cast iron skillet on my grill burner the most, it could be used on the glass top but I am too clumsy to use that heavy of a pan on it.  I love that there isn’t much clean up to the cast iron and how fast it cooks up.

Cast Iron Grilled Zucchini Recipe Ingredients:

• 3 Zucchini 
• 1/4 cup butter or margarine 
• Trader Joes Garlic Salt Grinder 

Now you could use olive oil to make this instead as a healthier option or a different oil as well. 

Cast Iron Grilled Zucchini Recipe Directions:

Slice up your zucchini, about a half inch thick will work. 

Wash off your Zucchini and allow to drip dry, you can also dry with a paper towel as well. 

If putting your pan on the grill fire up the grill or if on the stove turn your burner on 

Drop in your butter into your skillet and allow to melt.

Once your butter has melted place in your zucchini and salt to taste with your garlic salt, I love the Trader Joes grinder the flavor is amazing. 

Allow the Zucchini to cook until the Zucchini is softened and remove from heat.  

I do stir and flip mine to make sure the zucchini is cooked thoroughly thru. 

I place mine on a paper towel to absorb some of the excess butter off of the Zucchini 

Serve and enjoy!
