ZUCCHINI RIBBONS WITH HERBED GOAT CHEESE

Steps:

• Carefully slice cheese into 6 pieces with unflavored dental floss. Mix chopped herbs with salt and pepper, and gently pat onto the rounds. Place on a parchment-lined pan or plate and drizzle with olive oil. Refrigerate several hours or overnight.
• Cut zucchini on mandolin or with knife into 1/8-inch slices lengthwise. Add half the oil to a heavy sauté pan and heat with the smashed garlic. Stir until the garlic just begins to brown and scents the oil: don't let it burn! Remove garlic with a slotted spoon and sauté half the zucchini, stirring until just softened and it begins to color. Season with salt and pepper. Remove to a warm platter and hold while you repeat with the rest of the ribbons. Add shallot toward the end. Toss with the rest of the cooked zucchini, then add lemon zest and red pepper flakes.
• Place on 6 warm plates and top with goat cheese rounds. Sprinkle with coarse sea salt and fresh pepper. Garnish with a sprig of lemon thyme.

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 400 °F, and coat a 1-quart shallow baking or casserole dish with non-stick spray.
• Place the shredded zucchini in a bowl and add salt to taste, mixing well.
• This will be a seasoning as well as an agent to draw out moisture.
• Let stand for 5 minutes, then drain the water that has collected at the bottom of the bowl.
• Heat 1 TBS olive oil over medium heat in a large non-stick skillet.
• Add the zucchini and black pepper to taste, and cook for approximately 10 minutes or until all the moisture has evaporated.

• Add the garlic, mix well and cook 5 minutes more, stirring as needed.
• Stir in the parsley and basil, and remove from heat.
• Allow the mixture to cool to room temperature.
• Beat the eggs and goat cheese together in a bowl.

• Stir the cooled zucchini into the egg mixture, then spoon into the baking dish.
• Top with bread crumbs and drizzle the remaining TBS olive oil over the top.
• Bake until golden brown, approximately 20 to 30 minutes.
