      4. Garlic-Parmesan Hasselback Zucchini

      Garlic-Parmesan Hasselback Zucchini

      Low Phosphorus Low Protein Vegetarian Diabetes-Friendly Egg-Free No Shellfish Nut-Free Gluten-Free Italian Mediterranean Dinner Side

      Garlic-Parmesan Hasselback Zucchini

      Low Phosphorus Low Protein Vegetarian Diabetes-Friendly Egg-Free No Shellfish Nut-Free Gluten-Free Italian Mediterranean Dinner Side
      4 servings
      Prep time: 15 minutes
      Total time: 40 minutes

      Description

      Using the hasselback technique—cutting partially into a whole fruit or vegetable every 1/2 inch or so—gives you an easy way to sneak lots of flavor into this healthy zucchini recipe. To bake the zucchini instead of grilling, place in a foil-lined 8-inch-square baking pan and bake at 425°F until tender, 25 to 30 minutes.

      Directions

      1. Preheat grill to medium-high.
      2. Combine oil, oregano, garlic powder, salt and pepper in a small bowl.
      3. Make crosswise cuts every ½ inch along each zucchini, slicing almost to the bottom but not all the way through. Gently fan the zucchini to open the cuts wider and place a small piece of Parmesan into each cut. Brush the oil mixture over the top.
      4. Place the zucchini on a double layer of foil and grill, without turning, until browned and tender, 16 to 18 minutes.
