You can also grill this squash using a stove top grill pan, or a vegetable grill rack on your barbecue. If you are using a stove top grill pan, be sure that the pan has edges, otherwise the marinade can run off and cause a mess. If using on your barbecue, be careful as the marinade may cause flare ups. Be sure and have a water filled squirt bottle on hand to take care of any flare ups.
