　　Active time: 15 min Start to finish: 30 min

　　

Ingredients

Makes 1 servings

　　1 tablespoon olive oil

　　1/4 teaspoon ground coriander

　　1/8 teaspoon salt

　　1 medium zucchini (1/4 lb), cut lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices

　　

Step 1

Prepare grill for cooking. If using a charcoal grill, open vents on bottom of grill, then light charcoal. Charcoal fire is medium-hot when you can hold your hand 5 inches above rack for 3 to 4 seconds. If using a gas grill, preheat burners on high, covered, 10 minutes, then reduce heat to moderate.

　　

Step 2

Stir together oil, coriander, and salt, then brush on both sides of zucchini. Grill zucchini on lightly oiled grill rack, turning over once, until tender, 8 to 10 minutes total. Cut zucchini diagonally crosswise into 1-inch pieces.

　　Cooks' note:

　　If you aren't able to grill outdoors, zucchini can be cooked in a hot lightly oiled well-seasoned ridged grill pan over moderate heat. If also using grill pan for lamb, grill zucchini before lamb and keep loosely covered with foil while lamb cooks and stands.
