Best 9 Sauteed Zucchini With Sun Dried Tomatoes Basil Recipes

SAUTéED ZUCCHINI WITH SUN-DRIED TOMATOES AND BASIL

Steps:

• Wash zucchini and dry with paper towels.
• Trim off the ends, and quarter zucchini lengthwise.
• Running a sharp knife down the length of each quarter, slice off the top 1/4 to 1/2 inch of the soft seed core; it's all right if some seeds remain.
• Arrange zucchini, cut side up, on a baking sheet lined with paper towels. Sprinkle with the salt and set aside for at least 10 minutes. (I use extra salt to pull out as much water as possible). Blot the quarters dry with paper towels. Cut each quarter on the diagonal into 3/4 inch-thick diamonds.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat for 1 minute. Pour in 2 tablespoons of the oil. When the oil is hot, add the zucchini and garlic. Sauté, stirring occasionally, until the zucchini browns and softens enough that you can cut through it with the side of a fork, about 5 minutes.
• Take the pan off the heat, toss in sun-dried tomatoes and basil and season generously with salt and pepper. Drizzle with the lemon juice and remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Serve immediately.

ZUCCHINI AND SUN-DRIED TOMATO MEATLOAF WITH GARLIC-HERB GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Combine the meatloaf mix, breadcrumbs, Parmesan, sun-dried tomatoes, basil, Worcestershire, eggs, onion, zucchini, 1/4 cup of the ketchup, half of the garlic, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a large mixing bowl. Using your hands, mix together until well combined.
• Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking sheet and form it into a compact oval-shaped loaf, about 9 inches by 5 inches. Bake the meatloaf for 30 minutes.
• Stir together the vinegar, brown sugar, Italian seasoning, remaining 1/4 cup ketchup and remaining garlic in a small bowl for the glaze. Remove the meatloaf from the oven and brush the top and sides all over with the glaze.

Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
