See my T-day series. Grilling them does work. :-)
I topped them with dill weed, salt free lemon pepper and parm'.

I added the parm' after they were done but still hot.

If I did not have the electric grill, I'd likely have broiled them in
the toaster oven:

I think the secret to little Zuc's is cooking them to where they are
just done but still slightly crisp, and not cooked to mush. ;-) Another
way it to just serve them halved and raw with a dip to personal taste.
I like Ranch.
