Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 tablespoon Olive oil
1 clove Garlic; crushed
1 teaspoon Lemon zest; grated
4 mediums Zucchini; halved lengthwise
Salt & black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons Mint leaves; chopped

Heat the broiler. Combine the oil, garlic and lemon zest on a large serving platter. Add the zucchini and turn to coat, rubbing the mixture evenly over the zucchini. Place the zucchini, cut side up, on a baking sheet or jellyroll pan. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
