Garlic-Infused Grilled Yellow Squash

Prepare your outdoor grill by turning the heat dial to a medium setting and give it a light coating of oil to prevent food from sticking.

Cut the squash into long, thin strips by slicing it horizontally with a sharp knife, aiming for slices that are 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch thick. This will help them cook evenly and stay on the grill.

Heat a small amount of olive oil in a pan over medium heat, then add minced garlic cloves and let them cook until they start to sizzle and release their aroma.

Anoint the squash slices with a generous amount of garlic-infused oil, sprinkling them with salt and pepper to bring out their natural flavors.

Place the squash slices on the grill, cooking them for 5 to 10 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of tenderness. Periodically brush them with additional garlic oil and gently flip them to prevent sticking or burning.
