Best 4 Sauteed Zucchini With Sun Dried Tomatoes Recipes

SAUTéED ZUCCHINI WITH SUN-DRIED TOMATOES AND BASIL

Steps:

• Wash zucchini and dry with paper towels.
• Trim off the ends, and quarter zucchini lengthwise.
• Running a sharp knife down the length of each quarter, slice off the top 1/4 to 1/2 inch of the soft seed core; it's all right if some seeds remain.
• Arrange zucchini, cut side up, on a baking sheet lined with paper towels. Sprinkle with the salt and set aside for at least 10 minutes. (I use extra salt to pull out as much water as possible). Blot the quarters dry with paper towels. Cut each quarter on the diagonal into 3/4 inch-thick diamonds.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat for 1 minute. Pour in 2 tablespoons of the oil. When the oil is hot, add the zucchini and garlic. Sauté, stirring occasionally, until the zucchini browns and softens enough that you can cut through it with the side of a fork, about 5 minutes.
• Take the pan off the heat, toss in sun-dried tomatoes and basil and season generously with salt and pepper. Drizzle with the lemon juice and remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Serve immediately.

ZUCCHINI WITH SUN DRIED TOMATOES, BACON, AND CRISPY ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat a saute pan to medium high heat. Add the bacon pieces and cook until crisp. Remove from pan and set aside.
• Reduce heat to medium and then add zucchini to the bacon drippings ( if you have more than a tbsp. or two, then drain first) and cook for 5-8 minutes, or until it begins to soften. Add the sun dried tomatoes and cook another 5 minutes or until zucchini is tender.
• Add half the parmesan and the bacon and then stir well. Add salt and pepper to taste. Make sure to add these seasonings after adding the bacon and cheese as they are both salty foods. Once seasoned, add the rest of the cheese to the top and the crispy onions.
• Serve immediately.

SAUTEED ZUCCHINI WITH SUN-DRIED TOMATOES

Steps:

• Wash the zucchini using a brush to gently scrub the zucchini and then pat dry with a kitchen towel. Cut off the stems and cut each zucchini in 3 or 4 pieces; then cut each piece lengthwise into 6 wedges. Set to the side.
• Chop the dried tomatoes and set to the side.
• In a large sauté pan, over medium heat, place 4 tablespoons of oil and the diced onion. Cook over a medium heat until the sliced onions are translucent, for about 4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Add the minced garlic and sauté an additional 1 minute.
• Add the dried tomato and sauté for additional 2 minutes.
• Add the zucchini, salt and pepper to taste, then cover with a tight lid and simmer for additional 5 minutes or until tender but firm.
• Using a slatted spoon transfer the zucchini into a large dish and serve while hot.

SAUTEED ZUCCHINI AND MUSHROOM WITH SUN-DRIED TOMATOES

Steps:

• In a large nonstick skillet; heat the oil over medium-high heat.
• Add the garlic and zucchini and cook, tossing and stirring often for 3 minutes.
• Add mushrooms, sundried-tomatoes, broth and basil, if using.
• Cook, tossing and stirring constantly, until zucchini are crisp-tender and the mushroom are sofened and have just begun to release their liquid, about 2 minutes.
• Remove skillet from the heat and season with salt and pepper.
• Serve immediately.
