Broiled Zucchini With Herbs Food

BROILED ZUCCHINI

Steps:

• Wash off zucchini, cut off ends and split lengthwise.
• Lay the split pieces of zucchini cut side up in a lightly greased baking dish.
• Pour over the butter or oil.
• Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the cut edge.
• Sprinkle with spices.
• Broil just until the zucchini slices get a lovely light brown on the top.
• Remove from the broiler, it will be cooked ala-dente' with about half of the crunch still in it.
• It is easiest to eat with a sharp knife handy to cut into small chunks for each bite -- but make sure you get some of the spices and cheese with each bite -- hm-m-m-m.

GRILLED ZUCCHINI ROLLS WITH HERBS AND CHEESE

Steps:

• Discard the outermost slices of zucchini and brush the rest of the slices with the oil on both sides. Season with salt and pepper. Place on a preheated grill or grill pan for about 4 minutes on each side, or until tender.
• In a small bowl combine the goat cheese, parsley leaves and lemon juice, mashing with a fork.
• Put 1/2 teaspoon of the cheese mixture about 1/2-inch from the end of a zucchini slice. Top with a few spinach leaves and 1 small, or half of a large basil leaf. Roll up and place seam side down on a platter. Repeat with the rest of the zucchini slices.

GRILLED ZUCCHINI WITH HERB SALT AND FETA

Steps:

• For the herb salt: Combine the salt, oregano and thyme in a small bowl and mix to blend.
• For the grilled zucchini: Brush the zucchini planks on both sides with olive oil and sprinkle on both sides with some of the herb salt. Transfer the zucchini to a grill pan set over medium heat and cook until tender, about 5 minutes, flipping halfway through. Remove the zucchini to a serving plate and sprinkle with the feta.

• Slice zucchini into 3 lengthwise pieces. Spray each slice with cooking spray.

GRILLED ZUCCHINI WITH HERB SALT AND FETA

Steps:

• Combine 1/2 cup kosher salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons each dried oregano and thyme in a small bowl.
• Slice 3 medium zucchini lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick planks; brush with olive oil and lightly sprinkle on both sides with some of the herb salt (reserve the remaining herb salt to use as an all-purpose seasoning).
• Grill the zucchini over medium heat, flipping halfway through, until tender, about 5 minutes. Remove to a platter and sprinkle with crumbled feta.

FRIED ZUCCHINI WITH CRISPY LEMONS AND CRISPY HERBS

Steps:

• Combine the panko, plain breadcrumbs, Parmesan and cayenne in a medium bowl. Whisk together the eggs with 1 tablespoon cold water in another medium bowl. Arrange the zucchini in a single layer on a baking sheet, flesh-side up, and sprinkle with salt. Submerge the zucchini wedges in the egg mixture. Remove the pieces one by one, shaking off the excess egg, then roll in the breadcrumbs, pressing well so they are coated on all sides and the breadcrumbs adhere. Arrange in a single layer on the same baking sheet. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 12 hours.
• Fry the lemon and herbs: Pour the oil into a deep, heavy-bottomed pot with a fitted lid and attach a deep-fry thermometer. Heat to 325 degrees F.
• Line a baking sheet with paper towels. Drop the thin lemon rounds into the oil and fry until lightly browned and crisped, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove them with a slotted spoon and spread on one half of the lined baking sheet to cool.
• Raise the oil to 350 degrees F. Herbs tend to splatter when they hit hot oil, so have the fitted lid for the pot ready in one hand. Dry any excess moisture from the herbs, then drop the parsley and the basil in the oil with your other hand and immediately cover and fry until they turn darker green, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove with the slotted spoon and spread on the other half of the baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt. Repeat the same process with the oregano.
• Bring the oil back to 350 degrees F. Test the oil by dropping in one piece of zucchini. It should rise to the surface fairly quickly, begin to bubble and fry gradually. Line two baking sheets with kitchen towels. Drop half the zucchini into the oil and gently, slowly "swirl" the oil with the slotted spoon as they fry so they cook evenly. Cook until light to medium brown, 2 to 3 minutes, then remove them slowly with the slotted spoon and lay them out on a kitchen towel to cool. Sprinkle with salt. Repeat with the remaining zucchini.
• Layer the zucchini with the herbs and lemon slices on a large serving plate, and serve with the lemon wedges.

• Trim and discard ends of zucchini. Cut each zucchini lengthwise in half; place in large bowl.

• Transfer zucchini to serving dish. Squeeze juice from lemon half over zucchini; sprinkle with herbs.

ZUCCHINI WITH SUMMER HERBS
