Method

  • Place zucchini strips in a colander over a bowl or in the sink.
  • Sprinkle zucchini with salt and toss to combine.
  • Let the zucchini sit for 15 minutes while the salt extracts the moisture.
  • Drain excess water, squeezing zucchini, if necessary.
  • Meanwhile, cook bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp, turning frequently.
  • Remove bacon to a stack of paper towels to drain. Crumble bacon.
  • Remove all but 2 T of bacon drippings from the pan.
  • Return the pan to medium heat.
  • Add the green onions and broccoli, stirring frequently for about 3-5 minutes or until crisp-tender.
  • Add zucchini and 2 T of pesto, tossing to combine all ingredients. Taste and add more pesto, if needed. The mixture only needs to warm up, so 2-3 minutes of cooking ought to do it.
  • Serve with bacon crumbles and freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
