Good Monday, hope you had a lovely weekend filled with lots of good food. If you are looking for the perfect side dish for any dish, look no further. This grilled zucchini with feta cheese, olive oil, and salty almonds is beyond amazing. It requires only a few ingredients, so go for a good quality feta cheese. This dish goes very well together with a piece of grilled meat or fish and middle-eastern inspired dishes. We ate the grilled zucchini with feta cheese along with muhammara and grilled chicken.
Use a cast-iron skillet!
If you don’t have a grill a home, which we for instance don’t have in our city-home, you can use a cast-iron skillet instead. We have one with griddles which works amazing when you want that BBQ taste and look, but simply don’t have a grill available.
Hope you like it,
Michelle
