Zucchini With Lemony Crumbs Recipes

Steps:

• Lop off the tops and bottoms of the zucchini and quarter them lengthwise. Place in a very large resealable plastic bag (or two regular-size bags). Drizzle in the olive oil, then add 1 teaspoon salt,1 teaspoon pepper, 1 tablespoon lemon zest and the lemon juice. Seal the bag and smoosh everything around a bit so that the zucchini is coated. Set aside for 15 to 20 minutes to marinate.
• Preheat a grill to medium. Grill the zucchini, turning, until nice and tender, being careful not to burn it, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove the zucchini to a plate as it gets done.
• Pile up the rest of the lemon zest on a cutting board and sprinkle 1 tablespoon salt on top. Use a knife to chop the salt and zest together until it becomes lemon salt. Add more salt if it needs it. Sprinkle the lemon salt over the grilled zucchini.

Steps:

• Toss zucchini with 3/4 teaspoon salt in a colander set over a bowl and let drain 20 minutes. Squeeze handfuls of zucchini in a kitchen towel to remove excess moisture.
• Melt 3 tablespoons butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium heat, then cook bread crumbs, zest, thyme, and 1/8 teaspoon salt, stirring, until crumbs are golden, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and wipe out skillet, then cook garlic in remaining 3 tablespoons butter over medium-high heat, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add zucchini and sauté until softened slightly, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve zucchini topped with bread crumbs.

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.

Steps:

• Toss zucchini with 3/4 tsp salt in a colander set over a bowl and let drain 20 minutes. Squeeze handfuls of zucchini in a kitchen towel to remove excess moisture.

Steps:

Stir batches together and add lemon juice and thye leaves; season with salt and pepper.
