Recipe by Alison Roman We like the texture of the leeks and zucchini when left al dente-if grilled too long, they'll both go floppy.

Ingredients

1/3 cup walnuts 1 garlic clove, finely grated 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice 5 tablespoons olive oil, divided Kosher salt Freshly ground black pepper 2 large leeks, white and pale-green parts only, halved lengthwise with some root attached 2 large zucchini (about 1 pound), halved lengthwise 1/2 cup (lightly packed) fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves with tender stems

Instructions

Prepare grill for medium-high heat. Toast walnuts in a dry small skillet over medium heat, tossing often, until fragrant, about 5 minutes. Chop very coarsely. Toss warm walnuts with garlic, lemon juice, and 3 tablespoons oil in a large bowl; season with salt and pepper. Brush leeks and zucchini with remaining 2 tablespoons oil; season with salt and pepper. Grill vegetables, turning often, until tender and charred in spots, 5-8 minutes for leeks, 8-10 minutes for zucchini. Transfer vegetables to a cutting board. Trim roots from leeks and cut leeks and zucchini into bite-size pieces. Add vegetables and parsley to bowl with walnuts and toss to combine; season vegetables with salt, pepper, and more lemon juice, if desired.
