ZUCCHINI FRICO



Zucchini Frico image

It may be daunting to imagine, but this dish is really quite simple. All you do is take some good hard cheese, grate it, spread it in a nonstick pan and let it melt until it turns golden. Montasio is traditional, but Parmesan, asiago or a young, not too salty pecorino will all work well, too, so use whatever you have. You can form frico into small individual crackers for neater serving, or you can make one large cracker the size of your pan and break it apart as you devour it. Frico on its own doesn't need much embellishment. All it truly requires is a chilled cocktail or a glass of Italian white wine served alongside. But this one incorporates zucchini. First, I browned thin rounds of zucchini in olive oil, then I topped them with the cheese and let them cook. It took only five minutes, plus another minute or so to let the cheese crisp up after I turned it out of the pan.

Categories     quick, appetizer

Time 20m

Yield 4 to 6 hors d'oeuvres servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

Olive oil, for brushing
1 medium Romanesco zucchini, sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
4 ounces Parmesan, grated medium-fine (about 1 cup)
Fresh basil leaves
Cracked black pepper

Steps:

  • Brush a large nonstick skillet with oil and heat over medium-high until hot. Arrange half the zucchini rounds in a single layer, allowing about an inch of space between them. Cook, without moving them, until undersides are dark golden, about 2 minutes. Carefully flip and cook until golden, about 2 minutes more.
  • Sprinkle half the cheese evenly over zucchini and into the spaces between it. Cook, without moving, until cheese looks lacy and translucent, and no longer sticks to the pan, about 5 minutes. Tip the skillet and using a spatula, gently help slide the frico in one piece onto a large plate. Sprinkle with torn basil and finish with pepper. Repeat with remaining zucchini and cheese. Break into pieces to serve.

Categories     appetizer

Time 1h5m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

Frico Chips:
1/2 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
1 medium zucchini, halved lengthwise
1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 clove garlic, minced
Zest of 1 large lemon
3 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
12 jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon agave
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 medium avocado, peeled seeded and diced into 1/2-inch pieces

Steps:

  • For the frico chips: Place an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Line a baking sheet with a silicon mat. Place eight 1-tablespoon mounds of cheese on the mat and gently tap down until flat. Bake until golden and bubbly, 8 to 10 minutes. Let the frico chips cool until firm, about 5 minutes.
  • Place a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill.
  • For the zucchini: Using a pastry brush, brush the zucchini halves with the oil and season with the salt. Grill until tender, 4 to 5 minutes each side. When cool enough to handle, cut the zucchini into 1/2-inch cubes.
  • For the shrimp: In a medium bowl, mix together the oil, soy sauce, garlic, zest, parsley, chives, salt and pepper. Add the shrimp and toss until coated. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. Grill until pink and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes each side. Chop into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • For the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the oil, lemon juice, agave, mustard, salt and pepper until smooth.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the zucchini, shrimp, dressing and avocado. Gently toss until all the ingredients are coated.
  • Using a slotted spoon, spoon the salad into 8 small ramekins. Garnish with frico chips and serve.
