ZUCCHINI WITH PARMESAN
Steps:
- Remove the ends of the zucchini and, if they are large, cut in half lengthwise. Slice the zucchini diagonally in 1/2-inch slices. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large (12-inch) saute pan and add the onions. Cook for 10 minutes on medium-low heat, until they start to brown. Add half the zucchini, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper to the pan and cook, tossing occasionally, for 10 to 15 minutes, until just cooked through. Sprinkle with Parmesan and cook for 30 seconds more. Remove to a serving platter and repeat with the rest of the zucchini. Serve immediately.
- Note: If you cook too much zucchini in one pan, you end up steaming rather than sauteing it. I prefer to cook it in 2 batches.

Tips for Cooking Zucchini with Green Peppercorns, Lemon, and Parmesan:
- **Select firm and tender zucchini**: Avoid zucchini that is too large or has blemishes. Smaller zucchini tend to have fewer seeds and a more delicate flavor. - **Use fresh green peppercorns in brine**: These peppercorns pack a burst of piquant flavor and a slight crunch. If you can't find them, substitute with 1 teaspoon of dried green peppercorns, lightly crushed. - **Zest the lemon before juicing it**: This will release the aromatic oils from the lemon peel, enhancing the flavor of the dish. - **Grate the Parmesan cheese finely**: This will help it distribute evenly throughout the dish and melt smoothly. - **Don't overcrowd the pan**: When sautéing the zucchini, make sure to do it in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan. This will ensure that the zucchini browns evenly and doesn't steam. - **Season to taste**: Adjust the amount of salt and pepper to your liking. You can also add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a touch of heat. - **Garnish with fresh herbs**: Before serving, sprinkle the zucchini with chopped parsley, basil, or thyme for an extra pop of flavor and color.Conclusion:
Zucchini with green peppercorns, lemon, and Parmesan is a quick and easy side dish that is both flavorful and versatile. It pairs well with grilled meats, fish, or poultry. The bright flavors of the lemon and green peppercorns complement the mild sweetness of the zucchini, while the Parmesan cheese adds a touch of richness and umami. This dish can be enjoyed as a light lunch or dinner, or as a side dish for a special occasion. With its vibrant colors and delicious taste, this recipe is sure to impress your friends and family.
