Marinated Zucchini Salad

<

A simple marinated zucchini salad from Donna Hay. Raw zucchini salad can be rather dull, but when very thinly sliced, they soak up the flavour of a vinaigrette perfectly through marinating. This fresh, tasty recipe will come in handy when zucchini starts producing in your garden.

60 ml White balsamic vinegar 60 ml Lemon juice 2 tbsp Finely grated lemon zest 2 Chilli peppers, deseeded and finely chopped 2 Garlic cloves, crushed 2 tbsp Olive oil Sea salt and cracked black pepper 600 g Zucchini, thinly sliced 1 Small red onion, cut into rings, optional A handful of chives

1. Place the balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, lemon zest, chilli pepper, garlic, olive oil, salt and pepper in a bowl and mix to combine.
   
2. Cut zucchini crosswise into thin round slices with a knife or a mandolin. Add the sliced zucchini and red onion if used, to the marinade and toss to coat. Allow to marinate for 10 minutes. Place on a serving plate and top with the chopped chives to serve.
