Ingredients
- 2 medium zucchini
- 8 ounces button mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Step 2
Wash and trim the ends of the zucchini. Slice them into 1/4-inch thick rounds or long strips, depending on your preference.
Step 3
Clean the mushrooms by wiping them with a damp paper towel. Remove the stems if desired.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Stir to mix the seasoning evenly.
Step 5
Add the zucchini slices and mushrooms to the bowl. Toss well to coat the vegetables thoroughly in the seasoning mixture.
Step 6
Place the zucchini and mushrooms directly on the preheated grill or on a grill pan. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until grill marks appear and the vegetables are tender.
Step 7
Optional: During the last minute of grilling, drizzle the vegetables with balsamic vinegar for added flavor.
Step 8
Remove the grilled vegetables from the heat and transfer them to a serving platter.
Step 9
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
