- Yummy zucchini!! I added just a touch of basil, and took it up after 5 minutes to keep it crisp. We had this with a creamy sherry chicken, and the flavor and texture contrast was superb. Thanks Nurse Di!
- We enjoyed this very much. The medley of vegetables with the added flavors of thyme and the parmesan is awesome. This will make a side dish for almost any meal. I served this with steak.
- We love zucchini so this was a hit, I added a squirt of lemon juice before serving. Simple and quick, thanks for posting. =)
- Wow!! What a taste sensation. I made this for supper tonight. My DH is still talking about it. Needless to say we loved it and will make it again and again. Thank you very much.
- I have made a similar dish for years...I throw in a bunch of garlic and I substitute half of the zuchinni with yellow summer squash...Makes it pretty... But the kicker for me is to add a fresh diced tomato at the end and cook enough just to heat the tomato... Not only is this a good looking dish, it tastes excellent...
Tweaks
- I only used large chunks of red onion, minced garlic, and sliced zucchini - all right out of the garden. I opted to use olive oil instead of vegetable oil. I served this with meatloaf wellington and was impressed with the combination.
- This was a really great recipe. I had to substitute oregano for the thyme and a strong swiss cheese for the parmesan, yet it still came out terrific. A great recipe that is flexible too!
