Time 1h5m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
Pinch of crushed red pepper flakes
One 28-ounce can whole plum tomatoes, crushed by hand
One 15-ounce can whole plum tomatoes, crushed by hand
4 large sprigs fresh basil, plus 1 cup chopped fresh basil
1 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, plus more, for serving
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 large zucchini, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 pound dried farfalle
1 cup sliced jarred roasted red peppers
3 cups shredded provolone
1 cup grated pecorino

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring, until the garlic is golden, about 2 minutes. Add both cans of tomatoes and 1 cup of water. Increase the heat to medium-high and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat slightly, add the basil sprigs and simmer rapidly, uncovered, until thickened, 15 to 20 minutes. Discard the basil sprigs and stir in the chopped basil and parsley. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the zucchini and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl with a slotted spoon.
  • Cook the farfalle in the salted boiling water until very al dente, about 2 minutes less than the package directions. Drain the pasta and add it to the bowl.
  • Add the tomato sauce, red peppers, half of the provolone and half of the pecorino to the bowl and stir well to combine. Transfer the pasta to a 3- to 4-quart baking dish and top with the remaining provolone and pecorino. Bake, uncovered, until browned, about 15 minutes. Let the pasta stand about 10 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with parsley.

ZUCCHINI LASAGNA ROLLS



Zucchini Lasagna Rolls image

Sometimes in the summer, home gardeners are blessed with an abundance of zucchini. Here's another way to use some of that lovely veggie. Thinly sliced zucchini is used, instead of lasagna noodles, to make these zucchini lasagna rolls. We like seasoned ground beef for the filling, but you could easily sub in some Italian sausage.

Provided by Bibi

Categories     Zucchini Lasagna

Time 1h40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
3 pounds zucchini
1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1 pound ground beef
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning blend
½ teaspoon fennel seeds
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
½ teaspoon salt, or to taste
½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup ricotta cheese
1 large egg, beaten
⅓ cup grated Parmesan cheese
⅓ cup minced fresh parsley
¼ teaspoon salt, or to taste
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
cooking spray
2 cups marinara sauce, divided
¼ cup tomato paste
2 cups grated mozzarella cheese, divided
2 tablespoons minced fresh basil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a 12x18-inch half sheet pan with foil and brush with 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  • Wash, dry, and trim the ends of the zucchini. Carefully slice each zucchini lengthwise into seven 1/8-inch thick slices using a mandolin or sharp knife. Place zucchini slices on the prepared pan and sprinkle with salt. Toss slices to distribute salt.
  • Cook in the preheated oven until zucchini slices are soft and pliable, about 10 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and place on several layers of paper towels to absorb any excess liquid. Set zucchini aside to cool.
  • Meanwhile, heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef and season with Italian seasoning blend, fennel seeds, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Cook and stir ground beef until brown and crumbly, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in minced garlic and cook until garlic is fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
  • Stir together ricotta, beaten egg, grated Parmesan cheese, minced parsley, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
  • Combine marinara sauce and tomato paste in a separate bowl, stirring well.
  • Spray a 9x11-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Spread 1/2 of the tomato mixture over the bottom of the baking dish.
  • When the zucchini is cool enough to handle, blot with paper towels. Line up 6 or 7 slices of cooled zucchini on the sheet pan.
  • Spread each slice of zucchini with about 1 1/2 tablespoons of the ricotta mixture. Sprinkle 1 1/2 tablespoons of the meat mixture over the slices. Setting 1 cup of grated mozzarella aside, sprinkle each zucchini slice with 1 tablespoon grated mozzarella.
  • Beginning with the end nearest you, roll up each zucchini slice over the filling, jelly roll-fashion, and place in the prepared baking dish. Repeat until there are 4 rows of 7 zucchini rolls.
  • Pour reserved marinara mixture over the zucchini rolls and sprinkle with reserved grated mozzarella.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until zucchini rolls are heated through, the sauce is bubbly, and the cheese is melted, about 30 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and allow to cool about 20 minutes. Garnish with minced fresh basil, if desired.
