  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Place the zucchini on a baking sheet and roast until just tender, about 15 minutes. Let cool. Place the zucchini, crab, melon cubes and bell pepper in a large bowl and toss to combine. Add 1 tablespoon of the mint, the basil, jalapeno, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt and pepper and mix well.

  2. Step 2

    Place 1 melon quarter on each of 4 large plates. Spoon the salad into the hollow of each piece of melon. Sprinkle the remaining mint over the top and serve immediately.
