Recipe Description

Gremolata is the classic Italian condiment made by chopping flat-leaf parsley, garlic, and lemon rind together. Citrusy and spicy, the relish also adds a garden-fresh brightness when sprinkled on sliced tomatoes, oven-roasted potatoes, corn-on-the-cob, seafood, and chicken. Gremolata is the classic garnish for osso buco, the dish of braised veal shanks. Newer gremolatas are made with chopped mint or capers (nice with lamb or salmon). Familiar vegetables just got a lot more interesting.

 

Ingredients

1/2 cup packed Italian flat-leaf parsley leaves, coarsely chopped 
4 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped 
Grated rind of 2 lemons 
Sea salt, to taste  

 

Preparation

1. On a board, chop the parsley, garlic, and lemon together until finely chopped. Transfer to a bowl. Stir in the salt.

2. Sprinkle the mixture over the grilled zucchini or squash.
