Grilled Zucchini: One would expect grilled zucchini to be an obvious dish, but it's not nearly as common as all that. The recipe is courtesy of Ivana, who prepared it for a wonderful meal in the hinterland of Verona. It's more of a procedure than a recipe.
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients:
- Zucchini
- Grated Parmigiano
- Bread crumbs
- Garlic
- Parsley
- Olive oil
Preparation:
Wash, dry, and thinly slice lengthwise a number of zucchini -- 1/8-inch or so slicesGrill them for a couple of minutes, turning them once. Transfer the slices to a baking dish and lay them flat. Take a look at how many you have, and prepare a mixture made with three parts grated Parmigiano, 1 part bread crumbs, and a little minced garlic and parsley. Spread the mixture over the zucchini -- it shouldn't be too thick -- drizzle a little extra virgin olive oil over them, and roast them for a few minutes in a preheated 400 F (200 C) oven. When the oil is crackling and the crust is lightly browned they're done.
