1 lb zucchini, scrubbed and trimmed
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
salt & freshly ground black pepper
12 large fresh mint leaves, slivered (or 1 tsp dried)
2 tablespoons fresh Italian parsley, finely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice (to taste)
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon white pepper

1
Preheat the grill to high.
2
Cut the zucchini into 1/4 inch length-wise slices. Brush each with olive oil (you'll need about 1 tablespoons in all) and season with salt and pepper.
3
When ready to cook, arrange the zucchini slices on the hot grill, turning with tongs, until tender and well browned, 10 minutes in all. Transfer to cutting board to cool.
4
Cut each zucchini slice crosswise on the diagonal into 1/4 inch strips. Transfer strips to a serving bowl and stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons oil, the mint, parsley, 1 tablespoons lemon juice, garlic, paprika, cumin and 1/4 teaspoons white pepper. Taste for seasoning, adding salt, white pepper, or lemon juice as necessary; the salad should be highly seasoned. Serve at room temperature.
