Beautifully summery and vibrant our courgette and feta salad is zingy with a kick of heat and perfect for serving alongside summer meals.
Chargrilled courgette sliced tossed together with crumbled creamy feta cheese a scattering of finely sliced red chilli and lemon zest finished with a drizzle of olive oil and chopped mint. It’s mouthwateringly good.
I like to serve this alongside BBQ kebabs or grilled prawns but it also tastes just delicious stuffed into warm pittas or wrapped in a flatbread. A great recipe for using up a glut of courgettes.
