If making your own marinade, mix marinade ingredients together in a small bowl. Cut squash lengthwise into ½ to 1-inch thick slices; place in a plastic bag or baking dish. Cover squash with marinade and marinate for at least 15 to 30 minutes in sealed plastic bag or covered dish. Preheat indoor or outdoor grill for medium to high heat. If using a dual contact grill, cook for 3 to 5 minutes or until desired tenderness. If using a single contact grill, cook for 3 to 5 minutes on each side or until desired tenderness.
