Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 large zucchinis (about 3 pounds)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 medium plum tomatoes (about 3 pounds), halved crosswise and tops trimmed
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
1 cup whole-milk ricotta (about 10 ounces)
1 cup shredded mozzarella (about 8 ounces)
1 ounce herbed goat cheese
Zest of 1/2 lemon plus juice of 1 lemon
4 cups baby arugula

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Put a rack on a baking sheet.
  • Use a mandoline or vegetable peeler to make ribbons from the entire length of each zucchini, as wide as possible (the first few may be too skinny). Make 48 ribbons total (you should get 12 from each zucchini). Lie the ribbons flat on the rack on the baking sheet (it's ok if they overlap slightly) and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt. Let sit for 10 minutes, then pat completely dry with paper towels.
  • Put the tomatoes in a large bowl and toss with the Italian seasoning, 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds black pepper. Arrange the tomatoes cut-side down in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Bake until soft to the touch and some of the juices have been released, about 25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, mix the ricotta, mozzarella, goat cheese, lemon zest, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds black pepper in a medium bowl. Lay out 2 zucchini ribbons lengthwise and slightly overlapping, then top with 2 more ribbons crosswise and slightly overlapping, to make a cross. Spoon a heaping tablespoon of the cheese mixture in the middle of the zucchini cross. Tightly fold the zucchini over the cheese mixture one ribbon at a time, alternating between the crosswise strips and the lengthwise strips, so you end up with 1 zucchini square. Repeat with the remaining ribbons and filling. Drizzle with the remaining tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  • Put the zucchini packs on top of the roasted tomatoes and bake until the zucchini is softened and the cheese is melted, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, toss the arugula with the lemon juice and divide among 4 plates. Spoon the tomatoes and zucchini onto the plates and drizzle with olive oil.

Tips:

  • Choose the best zucchini: For the best flavor and texture, select firm, medium-sized zucchini. Avoid zucchini that is too large or has blemishes.
  • Cook the zucchini properly: To prevent the zucchini from becoming mushy, cook it over medium heat until it is tender but still has a slight crunch.
  • Use a good quality cheese: The type of cheese you use will greatly affect the flavor of the ravioli. Use a cheese that melts well and has a strong flavor, such as Parmesan, mozzarella, or ricotta.
  • Don't overcook the ravioli: Ravioli cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Cook the ravioli for 2-3 minutes, or until it floats to the top of the water.
  • Serve the ravioli immediately: Ravioli is best served immediately after it is cooked. If you need to make the ravioli ahead of time, cook it and then store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. When you're ready to serve, reheat the ravioli in boiling water for 1-2 minutes.
