Trim and slice the zucchini in half lengthwise. Season the flesh generously with salt, and let sit for 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, prepare the Garlic-Herb mixture by combining basil, mint, walnuts, vinegar, capers, garlic, chili flakes, and 1 Tbsp. olive oil in a small bowl. Season with a pinch of salt.

Blot zucchini dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. Cut zucchini into large chunks (about 1 1/2 inches thick).

Heat remaining 2 Tbsp. olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet. Once hot, arrange zucchini chunks (ideally cut side-down) in pan and cook, undisturbed, for 5 minutes. Toss and continue cooking 5 to 6 more minutes, until the zucchini is golden and crisp-tender.Add Garlic-Herb Mixture, turn off heat, and toss a few times to combine. Taste and season with a pinch more salt, if needed. Empty mixture into a serving dish and garnish with extra torn herbs, if desired.
