I spied this marinated zucchini recipe online the other day and immediately bookmarked it. I had absolutely no idea eating zucchini raw was an option. But hello… it sure is. In fact, if you slice the zucchini thin enough, you have no idea you are even eating zucchini.
Here is my jacked up version.
Ingredients
2 medium zucchinis, sliced paper thin
1/3 cup olive oil
1/4 cup fresh basil, finely sliced
2 tablespoons lemon juice {I used bottled}
2 tablespoons fresh Parmesan {for garnish}
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
salt and pepper to taste
Directions
*The key is to slice the zucchini as thin as possible. Place sliced zucchini, basil, olive oil, lemon juice, red pepper flakes and salt and pepper in a bowl and toss until the zucchini slices are well coated.
Cover with saran wrap and let sit for 2 hours in the refrigerator.
Sprinkle with Parmesan prior to serving.
