Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 4 medium zucchini (washed and cut in 1/4-inch rounds)
  • Salt and pepper
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ lemon
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Instruction

  • Wash and dry the zucchini. Slice crosswise into about 1/4-inch thick slices.
  • Generously sprinkle both sides of the zucchini slices with salt and black pepper. Set aside.
  • Heat a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. When the skillet is hot, add half the olive oil.
  • Place the zucchini in the pan, making sure that the slices don’t overlap. Cook for about 2-3 minutes or until the bottom of the slices is nicely browned. Turn and cook the other side until browned.
  • Continue with remaining zucchini slices, adding olive oil as needed.
  • Transfer finished zucchini slices to a baking sheet and keep warm in a 200° oven while you finish cooking the remaining slices.
  • Transfer the cooked zucchini slices to a serving plate. Squeeze lemon juice over and sprinkle with grated Parmesan.
