My family who refuses to eat squash any other way, loves this:

Zuchinni squash sliced lengthwise into spears (quartered)

Marinade:
Olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice (can use lime instead). Put in plastic bag with squash for 20-30 minutes.

More lemon zest mixed into some salt and allowed to sit uncovered on a saucer to dry a little

Take marinated squash and grill, or, brown in a skillet if you don't have a grill going.

When done, still slightly firm & browned, sprinkle with the zest/salt mixture & serve

I didn't use amounts, depends upon how much squash you use. For 2 or 3 medium squash, I would use about 1T oil, zest from 2-3 lemons, juice from 2-3 lemons; more zest from a couple of lemons & 1-2 t. salt for sprinkle. Just experiment for your own taste.
