Juice remaining lemon. Add lemon juice as needed to yield 1/4 cup lemon juice.
Slice each garlic clove into 4 to 5 slices.
Wipe grill with olive oil. Turn on medium heat.
When grill is hot, place zucchini on grill. DO not disturb for about 4 minutes to get grill marks then turn at a 45 degree angle. Repeat on other side. Zucchini should have grill marks but not be cooked through. Set aside on a paper plate or plate lined with two paper towels.
Place lemon slices on grill just enough to get a grill mark on each side. Set aside on paper plate.
Grill onion segments. Try to keep intact and grill on both open sides to get grill parks. Add garlic and pepper strips when you flip the onion and allow them to brown slightly. Move onions, peppers and garlic to paper plate.
Flip your grill pan so the grill becomes the lid and you are baking in the bottom, If you do not have this king of pan, use a covered casserole baking dish.
Lightly oil the bottom of the baking dish. Place zucchini in the dish. Top each with a lemon slice.
Mix lemon juice, oregano, aleppo pepper plus salt and pepper to taste, and pour all but 1 tbsp over zucchini.
Coat walnuts with 2 Tbsp lemon juice, oregano, Aleppo pepper plus salt and pepper to taste. Bake for 4-5 minutes at start or end of zucchini cooking time.
Bake 20 minutes at 350 ℉ for 30 minutes.
Arrange zucchini on platter. Each should have a lemon slice. Top with walnuts, fresno, onion, and garlic.
Top all with feta cheese and garnish with dill fronds.
Notes
This is a Snap Pea Sheep recipe!A standard grill can be used here.... anything to get grill marks. Grill marks add to the flavor and visual appeal of this dish. I just happened to have a cast iron baking dish with a grill for a lid. I will say it is heavy and a little cumbersome to use but I have it and use it. Other vegetables to consider grilling and adding on top are radicchio, olives, green onions or asparagus. I would not bake them with the zucchini as they do not need that long of baking time. Eggplant, red peppers, artichokes, yellow squash, or Campari tomatoes on the vine can be added into the baking process to make this a truly memorable dish.
