Ingredients:

  • 4 medium-sized zucchini
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup white wine vinegar
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 tablespoon fresh mint leaves, chopped
  • Salt to taste

Instructions:

1. Wash the zucchini thoroughly and slice them into thin rounds.

2. Place the zucchini slices in a colander and sprinkle them generously with salt. Let them sit for about 30 minutes to draw out excess moisture.

3. After 30 minutes, rinse the zucchini slices under cold water to remove the salt. Pat them dry using a clean towel or paper towel.

4. In a large pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes, and sauté until fragrant.

5. Carefully place the zucchini slices into the pan and cook them for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they start to turn golden brown.

6. Once the zucchini slices are cooked, remove them from the pan and set them aside.

7. In the same pan, add the white wine vinegar and let it simmer for a minute or two to reduce slightly.

8. Return the zucchini slices to the pan, coating them evenly with the reduced vinegar. Cook for an additional minute, allowing the flavors to meld together.

9. Remove the pan from heat and sprinkle the chopped fresh mint leaves over the zucchini. Give it a gentle toss to distribute the mint flavor.

10. Let the scapece-style zucchini cool down before serving. It can be enjoyed both warm and at room temperature.

And there you have it! Your homemade Scapece-Style Zucchini is now ready to impress your taste buds and those of your guests.
