ITALIAN PAN FRIED ZUCCHINI with cheese and garlic

08/14/2016 by Filippo Trapella 2 Comments

Pan fried zucchini is an easy recipe, great aside eggs or meats. I love sear zucchini before cooking them slowly along with garlic and Parmigiano Reggiano cheese. A sprinkle of black pepper and minced Italian parsley complete this tasty recipe. Delicious just cooked, but great reheated as well!
