Share:
Ingredients
- 2 medium (about 12 ounces each) zucchini, sliced into ¾-inch-thick rounds
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- ¼ cup (57.5 g) sour cream
- 1 teaspoon dry ranch seasoning mix
- 1 cup (113 g) sharp cheddar cheese, finely shredded, divided
- 3 lices bacon, cooked, crumbled, divided
- Chives, chopped for garnish
- Salt, to taste
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine zucchini and salt. Toss to combine.
- Transfer the salted zucchini rounds to a colander for 1 hour. (This allows the excess water to drain off.)
- Preheat oven to 475°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
- After an hour, pat the zucchini completely dry with paper towels.
- Arrange the zucchini in a single layer on the lined baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil.
- Bake for 17-19 minutes, or until browned on the bottom.
- Remove the pan from the oven and carefully flip the zucchini. Sprinkle cheese evenly over the zucchini bites. Bake for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
- While the zucchini is baking, mix the sour cream and dry ranch seasoning in a small bowl.
- Top each baked zucchini round with a dollop of the sour cream mixture.
- Sprinkle with the crumbled bacon and chopped chives.
- Serve immediately.
