You should be left with only the roasted meat of the peppers. Cut flesh into 3″ X 1/3″ strips. Cut zucchini on a straight bias angle, season with salt and pepper. Grill in two different positions to give proper grill marks, a crisscross effect. Repeat on flip side In a 10″ pan, heat oil and sauté minced onions until translucent approximately four minutes.

chopped mint. Mix peppers with relish and add lemon dressing. Adjust
