1. Slice the zucchini lengthwise into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick. Brush both sides of the zucchini slices with olive oil and season lightly with salt and pepper.
2. Preheat a grill pan or outdoor grill to medium-high heat. Grill the zucchini strips for 2-3 minutes per side, until tender and marked with grill lines. Set aside.
3. Slice the ciabatta roll in half horizontally. Spread pesto sauce generously on both inner sides of the bread.
4. Layer the grilled zucchini slices over one half of the ciabatta. Top with slices of fresh mozzarella cheese.
5. Place the assembled sandwich back on the grill pan (or close the outdoor grill lid) for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the bread is lightly toasted. Serve immediately.
