Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Zucchini

    Slice the zucchini into rounds or half-moons, about 1/4 inch thick.

  2. 2

    Make the Basil Whipped Feta

    In a food processor, combine feta cheese, fresh basil, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Blend until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.

  3. 3

    Toast the Pistachios

    In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast the pistachio nuts until fragrant, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and chop coarsely.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Pan-Sear the Zucchini

    In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the sliced zucchini in a single layer and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  2. 5

    Plate the Dish

    On a serving plate, spread a generous layer of basil whipped feta. Top with the pan-seared zucchini, drizzle with honey, and sprinkle with toasted pistachios.
