About Broiled zucchini
Broiled zucchini is a simple, nutritious dish that highlights the natural flavors of this versatile vegetable. Commonly found in Mediterranean cuisine, zucchini is sliced and lightly seasoned before being broiled to tender perfection with a slight caramelized edge. This preparation method requires minimal added fat, often just a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of herbs or spices for flavor. Packed with vitamins A, C, and K, zucchini supports immune health and provides antioxidants to combat inflammation. It’s low in calories, rich in fiber, and contains potassium, which promotes heart health and balanced electrolytes. Broiling retains most nutrients and avoids excess oil compared to frying, making it a healthier option. However, excessive salt or cheese toppings could add unwanted sodium or fat. Broiled zucchini is perfect as a light side dish or healthy snack, celebrating simplicity and nutrition in every bite.
