Ingredients:


2 cloves garlic -- minced (about 1 teaspoon)

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon thyme or 1/4 cup fresh basil

3 small zucchini (about 1 pound)

3 medium tomatoes (or 1 pint cherry tomatoes)

1 cup grated Cheddar cheese

1/2 cup bread crumbs
 

Preparation / Directions:


Heat oven to 400 degrees. In an oven-proof skillet, combine garlic, olive oil and thyme (or basil) over medium-low heat. Trim the ends off the zucchini and cut them into 1/2-inch dice. Add to the skillet and increase the heat to high. Cook, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes (reduce heat if it seems that the garlic or zucchini will burn). Core the tomatoes, cut them in half and scoop the seeds out with your finger. Cut each half into 1-inch pieces. Grate the cheese and combine it with bread crumbs. Remove the pan from the heat, spread the tomatoes over the top of the zucchini and scatter the bread crumb-cheese mixture over the top. Bake, uncovered, for 30 minutes. Serve with baked or grilled chicken and corn on the cob.
