Marinated Zucchini in the Style of Naples image

I love this sweet, spicy zucchini from Mario Batali. It would be wonderful anytime, but I think it is especially refreshing during the hot summer months. This needs to be made a day in advance; allow 2 hours for the zucchini to drain and 24 hours to marinate.

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 lbs zucchini
salt
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup white wine vinegar
1/2 cup sugar
1 pinch red pepper flakes
4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
4 tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves
4 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves

Steps:

  • Cut zucchini lengthwise into 1/3-inch thick slices; place slices in a colander, sprinkle with salt and set aside to drain for 2 hours.
  • In a large saucepan or skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat; gently cook the zucchini slices until golden brown on both sides (about 3 minutes per side), being careful not to burn them (you will probably have to do this in more than 1 batch).
  • In another saucepan, bring the vinegar and sugar to a boil over high heat; add a pinch of pepper flakes and a pinch of salt.
  • Place the zucchini slices flat in a shallow bowl, with the garlic slices, basil and parsley scattered throughout.
  • Pour the vinegar over the zucchini slices and let marinate, covered and refrigerated, for at least 24 hours before serving.
