The Porch Packet

Zucchini. Summer squash. Cherry tomatoes. Olive oil, lemon, and bold seasoning sealed tight in foil. The Porch Packet with Wicked Lemon Peppah is bright, simple, and built for backyard cooking—fresh flavor, zero fuss, and the kind of side that disappears first.

Ingredients

For the Packet:

• 2 medium zucchini, sliced into ¼-inch coins
• 2 yellow summer squash, sliced into ¼-inch coins
• 1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• Juice and zest of ½ lemon
• 1–1½ tsp Wicked Lemon Peppah
• Heavy-duty aluminum foil

For Serving (Optional):

• Torn fresh basil or parsley
• Lemon wedges

Instructions

1. Preheat: Heat your grill to medium or your oven to 425°F.
2. Build the mix: In a large bowl, toss zucchini, squash, and tomatoes with olive oil, lemon juice, zest, and Wicked Lemon Peppah .
3. Pack it up: Divide the mixture between two large sheets of foil. Fold tightly into sealed packets.
4. Cook: Place packets on the grill (or on a baking sheet in the oven) and cook for 15–18 minutes until tender and steaming.
5. Finish: Carefully open (watch the steam), then garnish with fresh herbs and a squeeze of lemon.
6. Serve: Serve hot, warm, or room temp—whatever the porch calls for.

Chef Paddy’s Tip

• Keep It Even: Slice the squash uniformly so everything cooks at the same rate.
• Bright Wins Here: Wicked Lemon Peppah brings citrus, pepper, and balance that makes this dish pop.
• Finish Strong: A sprinkle of Parmesan at the end adds a nice salty finish.
• Double It: This goes fast—make more than you think you need.
