1: Split zucchini down the middle and score diagonally to form diamond patterns on the surface.

4: Sear zucchini on the scored side for 3 minutes.
5: Place zucchini in the pan and sear until golden brown.

7: For the sauce, mix red wine vinegar, chopped cherry tomatoes, minced shallot or garlic, olive oil, and minced parsley, basil, and oregano in a bowl.
8: Allow the sauce to marinate until zucchini is finished cooking.
9: Garnish zucchini with the sauce once cooled.
