Ingredients
  • 2 medium large zucchini, about 1½ pounds
  • Salt
  • Tart crust
  • 4 ounces goat cheese, room temperature
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese
  • Basil oil
  • Pepper
Instructions
  1. Slice the zucchini very thin on a mandolin or v-slicer. Toss the zucchini with about 1 tablespoon of salt in a large bowl and let sit for an hour. Drain off the water then gently squeeze the zucchini dry in a clean kitchen towel.
  2. Combine the goat cheese and Parmigiano with 2 tablespoons of basil oil and mix well.
  3. Roll the tart dough out into a large oval that will fit on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Using a spatula, spread the seasoned goat cheese out over the dough leaving ½ inch on the edge. Starting from the outside layer the zucchini slices in overlapping layers in a circle, working your way into the middle. Sprinkle with ground pepper and bake at 375 until the crust is golden brown, about 40 to 50 minutes.
  4. Drizzle with a little extra basil oil before slicing and serving. Can be served hot, warm, or at room temperature.
