I've always been ambivalent about zucchini. I don't dislike it, but at the same time, it never bowls me over with its flavor. Well, I have finally tasted zucchini that I would be happy to eat once a day! This Anne Burrell recipe is a WINNER!
It took a great imagination to come up with the lemon, herbs and ripe olives, and they add TONS OF FLAVOR to a bland vegetable and make it taste like a gourmet dish, which it is. Guests will love this dish. I know, because I already tried it on guests one evening. (Yes, they asked for the recipe!
Give this one a try! It's REALLY, REALLY DELICIOUS!
