  • 3/4 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 4 zucchinis medium sized

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the grill on medium-high to high heat.
  • Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic, the dry rub, and lemon zest. Cook, stirring continuously for about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.

  • Lay the slices out and brush with the butter mixture making sure to coat each piece.
  • Fold the zucchini into an accordion shape, like ribbon candy, and thread onto metal or wooden skewers.
  • Add the skewers to the grill and baste with remaining butter. Grill 1-2 minutes per side on all for sides until golden brown with singed edges.
