Parmesan Encrusted Zucchini



My only comments for this recipe is that it is delicious!  (and easy to make with relatively few ingredients.)  This is a good way to get your kids to eat their vegetables.... Makes 4 servings.

4 medium zucchini
salt
1 to 2 tablespoons melted butter 
2/3 cup coarsely grated Parmesan cheese
I also added freshly ground pepper to taste



  • Fill a medium pot with water.  Add salt and bring to a boil
  • Wash zucchini and cut into strips about 3 inches long by 1/2 inch thick
  • Add zucchini to water and cook, until barely tender, about 3-4 minutes.  Drain and plunge into ice water, then drain for 2-3 minutes.  Pat dry on paper towel
  • While zucchini cooks, preheat broiler and adjust rack so that it is 6 inches away from the heat.  Spray pan with Pam
  • Arrange zucchini in rows, close together, skin side down.  Brush with melted butter and sprinkle cheese, trying to get most of the zucchini covered
  • Place zucchini under broiler and cook until cheese is completely melted and well browned. 15+ minutes
