Best 6 Zucchini With Anchovies And Capers Recipes

PAN-FRIED ZUCCHINI WITH ANCHOVY VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add half of the olive oil and heat until it shimmers. Add half of the zucchini slices so they lay in one single layer. Cook until deep golden brown, about 4 minutes. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Flip each slice and cook an additional 4 minutes to brown the other side. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and continue with the remaining oil, zucchini and salt. Place drained zucchini on a platter and sprinkle with the Parmesan.
• When all the zucchini has been removed, turn off the heat and pour off all but 1 tablespoon of oil from the skillet. Add the anchovy paste and break apart with a wooden spoon until it dissolves and smells toasted. Add the capers, oregano, red pepper flakes and tomato. Squeeze in the lemon juice and stir. Spoon the tomato mixture over the zucchini and sprinkle with the chopped parsley.

BUCATINI PASTA WITH SHRIMP AND ANCHOVIES

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain.
• Meanwhile, stir together the anchovies and their oil with the red pepper flakes and garlic in a large skillet over medium heat, breaking up the anchovies as you stir. Once the garlic begins to sizzle, add the sliced zucchini, and cook until it begins to soften, about 3 minutes. Stir in the grape tomatoes, and continue cooking until the zucchini is tender, and the skins of the tomatoes begin to pop, 5 minutes more.
• Sprinkle the vegetable mixture with oregano and basil, then stir in shrimp. Cook until the shrimp turn pink and are no longer translucent. Pour over bucatini to serve.

WINTER SQUASH WITH ANCHOVIES, CAPERS, OLIVES AND RICOTTA SALATA

Steps:

• Heat the oil over medium heat in a large, lidded skillet and add the onion, garlic clove, anchovy fillets and capers. Cook, stirring, until the onion is tender, about 5 minutes. Remove the garlic clove and discard.
• Add the squash, stir together, add about 1/4 cup of water if the pan is dry, and cover the pan. Cook, stirring often, for about 30 minutes, until the squash is tender. Add the olives and continue to cook, stirring, for another 5 to 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper (you probably won't need much salt).
• Transfer to a serving dish, sprinkle on the ricotta salata and serve.

ZUCCHINI WITH ANCHOVIES AND CAPERS

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and cook until it begins to sizzle, about 1 minute. Add chopped anchovies and cook, stirring, until anchovies melt into oil, about 2 minutes.
• Add zucchini and cook, stirring, to coat. Season with salt and cook until zucchini are softened and lightly caramelized, about 15 minutes. Add capers and cook, stirring, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat; serve hot or at room temperature.

ZUCCHINI WITH ANCHOVIES & CAPERS

Steps:

• Trim the ends of the zucchini, and slice them into 1/4-inch-thick sticks, 2 to 3 inches long.
• Pour the olive oil into the big skillet, and set it over medium heat. Toss in the garlic cloves, cook for a minute or so, until sizzling, then drop the chopped anchovy into the pan. Cook, stirring, another minute or two, until the anchovy melts in the oil.
• Scatter the zucchini sticks in the skillet, and toss and stir to coat them in oil. Season with salt, and cook about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the zucchini are cooked through, limp, and lightly caramelized. Finally, toss in the capers and cook another minute or two to blend the flavors. Serve hot or at room temperature.

ZUCCHINI WITH TOMATOES AND ANCHOVIES

Steps:

• 1 Scrub the zucchini with a brush under cold running water. Trim off the ends. Cut into 1/8-inch slices. 2 Place a rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Oil a 13 × 9 × 2-inch baking pan. Arrange the zucchini and tomatoes in overlapping rows in the pan. 3 In a medium bowl, stir together the bread crumbs, anchovies, oil, garlic, and salt and pepper to taste. Scatter the mixture over the vegetables. 4 Bake 30 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender. Let rest 10 minutes before serving. From "1,000 Italian Recipes." Copyright 2004 by Michele Scicolone.
