List of Ingredients




6 medium zucchini, about 6 ounces each

3 tablespoons olive oil

1/2 cup chopped onion

1 cup finely chopped prosciutto or ham, about 3 ounces

1/2 cup soft bread crumbs

1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 egg

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon grated nutmeg

Recipe



Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Trim ends from zucchini, but leave whole.
Cook zucchini in a large saucepan of boiling salted water 3 minutes,
drain and rinse under cold running water. Cut zucchini in half
lengthwise. Scoop out the centers to form a trench down the middle of
each zucchini half. Chop zucchini centers and place in a medium bowl.
In a medium frying pan; heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat.
Add onion and cook 2 to 3 minutes, or until softened. Stir in
prosciutto or ham, chopped zucchini, bread crumbs, and parsley. Cook,
stirring once or twice, 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in 1/4 cup
Parmesan cheese, egg, salt, and nutmeg. Stuff zucchini with bread crumb
mixture. Place zucchini in a flameproof baking dish just large enough to
hold them. Drizzle remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil over zucchini and
sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese. Bake 2 minutes, or
until heated through. Transfer to the broiler and broil 3 inches from
heat until golden brown on top 1 to 2 minutes. Serves 6 to 12.
