Zucchini And Pepper Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Quarter zucchini lengthwise; cut crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick pieces. Remove ribs and seeds from peppers; cut into 3/4-inch squares.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add zucchini, peppers, tomatoes, and garlic; season with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing frequently, until vegetables are crisp-tender, 6 to 8 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat greased grill to medium heat.
• Toss peppers, zucchini and peaches with 1/4 cup dressing. Grill 5 to 6 min. or just until peaches are softened, turning after 3 min. Remove peaches from grill. Continue to grill vegetables an additional 5 to 7 min. or until crisp-tender, turning after 4 min. Transfer to cutting board.
• Chop peppers and zucchini. Toss lettuce with remaining dressing in large bowl. Add chopped vegetables and peaches; mix lightly.
• Top with remaining ingredients.

Steps:

• Peel zucchini and chop into 1/2-inch cubes or thin strips about 2 inches long. (If it is fresh and tender, peeling isn't necessary.)
• Chop or slice peppers into strips (according to what you did with the zucchini and onion; make it all similar in shape).
• Stir together zucchini, peppers, and onion.
• In a jar with a tight lid, make dressing by shaking vinegar, oil, and sugar.

Steps:

• Prepare grill for direct-heat cooking over medium-hot charcoal (medium-high heat for gas); see Grilling Procedure , or heat a 2-burner grill pan over medium heat until hot.
• Toss vegetables with 2 tablespoon oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Grill, turning occasionally, until tender, 6 to 8 minutes total. If using grill pan, grill in batches, 10 to 15 minutes per batch. Transfer peppers to a bowl and let stand, covered, 10 minutes. Peel peppers and cut into 1-inch pieces. Cut zucchini crosswise into 1-inch pieces.
• Whisk together vinegar, brown sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon pepper, and remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large bowl. Stir in vegetables and basil. Let stand 15 minutes for flavors to blend.

Steps:

• Shave the zucchini into long wide ribbons using a vegetable peeler or mandoline, turning the squash, if necessary, to ease shaving. Discard the seedy core. Put the zucchini into a colander set inside a bowl, sprinkle with salt, toss and drain for 30 minutes. Discard the liquid.
