Ingredients:
For the Zucchini:
1 tablespoon paprika
2 pounds of zucchini, cubed
salt and pepper to taste
3 tablespoons olive oil
For the Sauce:
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 c sour cream
2 tablespoons chopped basil
salt to taste
2 tablespoons chopped dill
2 garlic cloves, minced
Directions:
Prepare the oven and preheat to 200 degrees C or 400 degrees F.
In a large non-stick baking tray, add the zucchini, salt, pepper, paprika, and oil. Toss everything until well combined.
Place the tray inside the preheated oven and bake for about 20 minutes or until a bit brown.
Place a skillet on the stove and turn the heat to medium.
Add all the ingredients to the sauce, then stir until well blended. Allow the mixture to simmer, then remove the skillet from the heat.
Transfer the baked zucchini into the skillet with the sauce, then toss until well coated.
Sprinkle freshly chopped herbs on top to garnish.
Serve and enjoy!
Notes:
You can use the sauce over pasta or boiled rice. Just toss it until well coated, then serve.
Place any leftovers in an airtight container, then place them inside the fridge.
