Grilled Squash with Walnut-Parsley Pesto

Ingredients

• 1 cup tightly packed fresh parsley leaves
• 1/3 cup chopped toasted walnuts
• 1 small garlic clove, smashed and peeled
• 1/2 ounce Parmesan, finely grated (1/4 cup)
• 1/4 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
• Coarse salt and ground pepper
• 2 medium yellow squash, cut lengthwise into 3/4-inch

Directions

1. Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high. In a food processor, pulse parsley, walnuts, garlic, Parmesan, lemon zest, and lemon juice until combined, about 10 seconds. With machine running, add olive oil in a slow, steady stream and process until a paste forms. Season pesto with salt and pepper and transfer to a small bowl.
2. Clean and lightly oil hot grill. Season squash with salt and pepper. Working in batches, grill squash, turning occasionally, until lightly charred and tender, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a platter and serve with pesto.
