Ingredients

  • 4 medium zucchini
  • 1 dash salt
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 2/3 cup parmesan cheese

Directions

  • Pre- heat broiler and adjust the rack so it's 6" away from heat.
  • Fill a medium pot with water and add a generous amount of salt, bring to boil.
  • Wash the zucchini and cut into strips about 3" long and 1/2" thick.
  • Add zucchini to water and cook until barely tender (3-4 minutes).
  • Drain zucchini and plunge into ice water to stop the cooking, then drain in a colander for about 2-3 minutes.
  • Spray broiling pan with non-stick spray. Arrange zucchini on broiling pan in rows, close together, skin side down.
  • Brush zucchini with melted butter and sprinkle parmesan cheese over the zucchini, try to get most of it covered.
  • Place under broiler and cook until cheese is completely melted and well-browned. Takes about 15 minutes. Enjoy.
