Hasselback Zucchini
Ingredients
- 3 large zucchini ends trimmed and halved
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- Sea salt
- Fresh cracked black pepper
- 8 slices thin-cut cheddar cheese cut into 1-inch squares
- 4 slices bacon cooked and crumbled
- 1/3 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- Line up chopsticks on either side of zucchini halves, then carefully make 1/4” slices, making sure your knife hits the chopsticks (the chopsticks will prevent you from cutting all the way through the zucchini). Repeat with the remaining zucchini.
- Place zucchini on a parchment-lined rimmed baking sheet and brush with olive oil, season with salt and pepper. Bake until pliable, about 10 minutes.
- Remove the zucchini from the oven and carefully insert the cheddar cheese slices in each cut of the zucchini. Return to the oven for 6 to 10 minutes.
- Let cool slightly, then top each zucchini with a dollop of sour cream, a sprinkle of bacon crumbles, and chopped chives.
