make it
Blend oil, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, and ground black pepper in blender until almost smooth.
Using fork or wooden skewer, pierce zucchini all over. Place in medium bowl. Pour garlic oil over zucchini and let stand 30 minutes and up to 1 hour, tossing occasionally.
Prepare grill on medium-high heat. Grill zucchini until tender and golden in spots, turning occasionally, about 6 minutes. Transfer to plate, sprinkle with additional salt and serve.
Notes
* You may choose to marinate the zucchini for less than one hour. This would shrink the total time to about 45 minutes.
