Grilled Squash
June 23rd, 2009 by Amy
OK, the grilled squash did not go over well at dinner last week. The comments were: “Yuck!”, “It’s kinda slimy in the back of my throat…”, and “I don’t really like it.” I thought the taste was good, but the texture was too soft. Can anyone give me some recipes?
Here’s how I made the squash:
Squash marinating in italion dressing
I sliced in into 1/4″ planks, marinated it in my favorite dressing for 5 hours (I marinated chicken breasts in the same dressing). Then I grilled the planks over direct medium heat for 5 minutes a side. Here is the end result:
marinated chicken and squash
Looks good, but… (The chicken was really good, just not the squash)
Help, please! I’m sure I’ll get more squash this afternoon!

My favorite way to cook the squash is to saute it in some olive oil, and add some white wine and lemon juice, salt and pepper! I don’t cut it very thick either.
