Roasted Lemon Zest Zucchini With Pine Nuts Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk oil, lemon juice, 1 teaspoon coarse salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and crushed red pepper in small bowl to blend. Set dressing aside.
• Using vegetable peeler or V-slicer and working from top to bottom of each zucchini, slice zucchini into ribbons (about 1/16 inch thick). Place ribbons in large bowl. Add basil and nuts, then dressing; toss to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Using vegetable peeler, shave strips from Parmesan wedge over salad.

Steps:

• Top and tail the zucchini. Julienne with a large knife, mandoline, food processor or spiralizer.
• Transfer zucchini to a large bowl. Season generously with salt and pepper. Add lemon zest and juice and toss well. Set aside for 10 minutes.
• Add yogurt and toss to coat well. Taste and adjust seasoning. Add chopped herbs and mix gently. Garnish with feta and pine nuts to serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F.
• Toss pine nuts with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and spread out on a sheet pan; toast the nuts in the oven, shaking the pan about half-way through, about 7 minutes, or until evenly brown.
• Transfer to a serving bowl; reserve baking sheet.
• Toss the zucchini with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, garlic, lemon zest, salt and pepper (I let marinate at this point); spread out on the baking sheet and roast until crisp tender and slightly brown, about 10-12 minutes (I tossed it and shook it around about half-way through).
• Toss zucchini and lemon with the nuts.
• NOTE: The original recipe called for 6 ounces of fresh ricotta, scattered in dollops on top right before serving. I omitted this.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 500 degrees.
• In a large bowl, toss the broccoli with the oil and salt and pepper to taste. Arrange the florets in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast, turning once, for 12 minutes, or until just tender.
• Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the garlic and lemon zest and heat, stirring, for about 1 minute. Let cool slightly and stir in the lemon juice. Place the broccoli in a serving bowl, pour the lemon butter over it and toss to coat. Scatter the toasted pine nuts over the top.

Steps:

• preheat oven to 500 degrees.
• heat a 13x9 baking pan.
• cut 5 slices of lemon from center of lemon, squeeze juice out of both ends.
• wisk together lemon juice, oil, salt, pepper, add zucchini, toss to coat.
• add to baking pan in single layer, cook for 10 minutes.
• mix lemon slices with sugar, place in pan alongside zucchini, turn zucchini over and roast for 7 minutes more.
• serve zucchini on a platter topped with lemon slices.

Steps:

• Place farro in a large saucepan, and add enough cold water to cover by about 3 inches. Bring to a boil over high heat; add salt, and stir once. Reduce heat to medium, and simmer until farro is al dente according to package instructions, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain, and let cool.
• In a small bowl, combine shallot with lemon juice and salt; let stand 15 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small saute pan, heat oil over medium heat, and add pine nuts. Cook, stirring, until they are lightly toasted, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, and add lemon zest.
• Using a mandoline or sharp knife, slice zucchini crosswise as thinly as possible; place in a large bowl. Add farro, pine-nut mixture, and parsley; stir to combine. Stir in shallot mixture; season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a large serving bowl.
• Using a vegetable peeler, shave half the cheese over salad; toss to combine. Salad can be stored up 6 hours in refrigerator, covered with plastic wrap. Just before serving, shave remaining cheese on top.

Steps:

• Put 2 large shallow baking pans (preferably heavy; 1 inch deep) in upper and lower thirds of oven and preheat oven to 500°F.
• Cut 5 (1/8-inch-thick) crosswise slices from middle of lemon and squeeze 1 teaspoon juice from remaining pieces. Whisk together oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Add zucchini and toss until coated.
• Divide zucchini between preheated baking pans, spreading evenly in 1 layer, and roast in upper and lower thirds of oven until undersides are browned, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine lemon slices and sugar in bowl and toss to coat. Gently turn zucchini slices over and arrange lemon slices in 1 layer alongside zucchini. Switch position of pans and roast until zucchini and lemon slices are tender and browned, about 7 minutes. Serve, overlapping slices slightly, on a platter (not in a bowl) to prevent weeping.
