21 Zucchini recipes

Zucchini is so versatile you can "hide" it anything from chocolate cake to pancakes to slow-simmered ratatouille.

5. Mahi mahi with roasted zucchini

Beyond the Peel
Make a marinade for the mahi mahi with mint, garlic, olive oil, and lime juice.

By France Morissette, The Restless Palate

2 mahi mahi fillets
6 mint leaves
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tablespoon olive
Juice of 1 lime (about 2 tablespoons)
Salt and pepper
1 zuchinni

1. Chop the mint and mince the garlic. In a bowl, mix together the mint garlic, oil, and lime juice. Place the fillets in a airtight bag or shallow container and pour in the marinade. Let sit for at least 15 minutes and up to 30 minutes.

2. Set oven to broil. Remove the fillets from the marinade. Set the Mahi Mahi fillets on the baking sheet, sprinkle with salt and pepper. Broil the fish until cooked through and the flesh begins to flake, about 8-10 minutes depending on the size of the fillets.

Recipe notes: Cut zucchini into 1/2 inch slices. Brush both sides with olive oil. Season one side with salt and pepper. Lay slices along side the fish and broil at the same time, flipping the slices of zucchini halfway through the cooking time.

Dill yogurt sauce

1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon honey
Salt and pepper to taste

Combine the yogurt, dill, chives, lemon juice, and honey. Mix to combine and season with salt and pepper to taste. If you prefer a thinner sauce, it can be thinned out with 1-2 tablespoons of water. Serve along side fish and eggplant if serving.

Dear Reader,

About a year ago, I happened upon this statement about the Monitor in the Harvard Business Review – under the charming heading of “do things that don’t interest you”:

“Many things that end up” being meaningful, writes social scientist Joseph Grenny, “have come from conference workshops, articles, or online videos that began as a chore and ended with an insight. My work in Kenya, for example, was heavily influenced by a Christian Science Monitor article I had forced myself to read 10 years earlier. Sometimes, we call things ‘boring’ simply because they lie outside the box we are currently in.”

If you were to come up with a punchline to a joke about the Monitor, that would probably be it. We’re seen as being global, fair, insightful, and perhaps a bit too earnest. We’re the bran muffin of journalism.

But you know what? We change lives. And I’m going to argue that we change lives precisely because we force open that too-small box that most human beings think they live in.

The Monitor is a peculiar little publication that’s hard for the world to figure out. We’re run by a church, but we’re not only for church members and we’re not about converting people. We’re known as being fair even as the world becomes as polarized as at any time since the newspaper’s founding in 1908.

We have a mission beyond circulation, we want to bridge divides. We’re about kicking down the door of thought everywhere and saying, “You are bigger and more capable than you realize. And we can prove it.”

If you’re looking for bran muffin journalism, you can subscribe to the Monitor for $15. You’ll get the Monitor Weekly magazine, the Monitor Daily email, and unlimited access to CSMonitor.com.
