Zucchini is fried then baked with an herbed tomato sauce.

Ingredients:

  • 4 to 5 medium zucchini, about 1 1/2 pounds
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 teaspoon dried leaf oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried leaf basil
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tomatoes, sliced
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Preparation:

Butter an 8-inch square baking dish. Scrub zucchini and cut into 1/4-inch slices. In a medium bowl, combine flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon oregano, 1/4 teaspoon basil, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Toss zucchini slices with the seasoned flour, coating slices thoroughly. Heat oil over medium low heat in a large skillet. Sauté zucchini slices in batches until golden brown, about 4 minutes on each side. Drain well and repeat until all zucchini is browned. In a bowl, combine sour cream, remaining 1 teaspoon salt, remaining 1/2 teaspoon oregano, 1/4 teaspoon basil, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Place zucchini slices in baking dish. Top zucchini with tomato slices; spread sour cream mixture over tomatoes, then sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake at 350° for about 30 minutes, or until zucchini is tender. Serves 6.

Zucchini ParmesanAugust 08, 2009By Jim.Dutmer
"Didn't have time to bake, so I dropped out the sour cream. I fried zucchini in pan. In seperate pan heated diced tomatoes with spices as recommended. Once hot, poured diced tomatoes over the fried zucchini, poured parmesan over the top and covered. Not exactly what the recipe had in mind, but the taste was GREAT. Thanks for the ingredients and mix suggestion. Our zucchini and tomatoes are really coming in great from our garden and this recipe really hit the spot!!"
