Zucchini, parmesan cheese and pancetta's hint of bacon-ness combine for a lovely side dish - this would also be great tossed with some pasta for a light main dish.
Ingredients
- 2 oz. thinly sliced pancetta, chopped into 1/2" bits shopping list
- 1 Tbsp olive oil shopping list
- 1/2 cup chopped onion shopping list
- 2 cloves garlic, minced shopping list
- 3 cups zucchini chunks shopping list
- 1/3 cup chicken stock shopping list
- 1 Tbsp butter shopping list
- 1/2 cup fresh grated parmesan (I coarsely grate mine for this dish) shopping list
- 1 Tbsp chopped fresh basil (or herb of your choice) shopping list
- salt & pepper to taste shopping list
How to make it
- Heat skillet over medium heat; when hot, add pancetta and cook until almost crisp (should only take a minute for thinly sliced pancetta)
- Remove pancetta and set aside.
- Add olive oil to skillet; add onions and saute 3 minutes, then add garlic and cook another 2 minutes or until onion is tender.
- Add zucchini and cook until tender-crisp (you can cover to steam the zucchini if you like)
- Add chicken stock and butter, stirring to coat. Add basil and parmesan and cook another 2 to 3 minutes. Season to taste (between the parmesan and pancetta, I didn't need much salt - taste first before adding!)
- Sprinkle with reserved pancetta when serving.
