This recipe is courtesy of Ina Garten, I just love the way she makes everything seem so simple to prepare. Well, this one is simple. I have never been a fan of zucchini due to having not grown up eating it and then the few times I did have it I didn’t care for the way it was prepared. I think this is the case with a lot of vegetables for most people, but this recipe might change your mind if you are not a fan of zucchini. With garlic, basil, and Parmesan all seasoning the breadcrumbs you know it’s going to be good! This dish is great served hot out of the oven, warm, or room temperature. Enjoy! <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

6 small or 1 large zucchini (2 1\/2 to 3 pounds total)
\n1 Tbsp. minced garlic (about 3 cloves)
\n2 Tbsp. minced fresh parsley leaves
\n2 Tbsp. julienned fresh basil leaves
\n1\/2 C. freshly grated Parmesan cheese
\n1\/2 to 3\/4 C. Panko bread crumbs
\nOlive oil
\nSalt and freshly ground black pepper<\/p>\n

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Trim the stem end of the zucchini, cut them in half lengthwise, and scoop out the seeds with a teaspoon. Place on a sheet pan and brush generously with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and turn cut side down. Roast for 12 to 15 minutes, until just tender but still firm.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, make the breadcrumbs. In a medium bowl, combine the garlic, parsley, basil, Parmesan, 1 teaspoon salt and 1\/2 teaspoon of pepper. Add the panko and 3 1\/2 tablespoons of olive oil and mix well.<\/p>\n

Turn zucchini cut side up and spoon the breadcrumb mixture evenly over each zucchini. Bake for another 8 to 10 minutes, until the panko is crispy and golden.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
