Ingredients
- 2 medium-sized zucchini
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
- 1 1/2 oz. herbed goat cheese, room temperature
- 1/2 roasted red bell pepper, diced
- 2 tsp capers
Instructions
- Preheat grill to high heat.
- Slice a strip lengthwise from the zucchini to expose the inside of the vegetable. Discard or reserve for another use. Cut the 2 ends from the zucchini to make straight edges. Cut the zucchini lengthwise into ½-inch strips.
- Brush both sides of the zucchini pieces with olive oil. Season well kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Lay the zucchini pieces on the grill. Cook until the zucchini is very tender, but not mushy, about 3 minutes per side, moving the pieces during cooking to ensure even browning.
- Remove the zucchini from the grill and set on a wire cooling rack.
- Spread about 1 teaspoon of goat cheese on each zucchini slice. Divide the red pepper and capers evenly amongst the zucchini.
- Gently roll each piece of zucchini. Serve.
