Ingredients

3 medium zucchini 2 tbsp. olive oil 1/2 tsp. salt 1/2 tsp. coarsely ground black pepper 1/2 c. fresh mint leaves 4 medium skinless, boneless chicken-breast halves 3 lemons 1 tbsp. chopped fresh oregano leaves

Instructions

Prepare outdoor grill for covered, direct grilling on medium. With mandoline or sharp knife, slice zucchini very thinly lengthwise. In large bowl, toss zucchini with 1 tablespoon oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and half of mint. Pound chicken breasts to uniform 1/4-inch thickness. From 2 lemons, grate 1 tablespoon peel and squeeze 2 tablespoons juice. Cut remaining lemon into 4 wedges; set aside. In medium bowl, combine lemon peel and juice with oregano, remaining 1 tablespoon oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper. Add chicken to bowl and toss until evenly coated. Place zucchini slices, in batches, on hot grill grate, and cook 2 to 4 minutes or until grill marks appear and zucchini is tender, turning over once. Remove zucchini from grill; place on large platter and sprinkle with remaining mint. Place chicken on hot grill grate. Cover grill and cook chicken 6 to 8 minutes or until juices run clear when chicken is pierced with tip of knife, turning over once. Transfer chicken to platter with zucchini; serve with lemon wedges.
