    Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

    Trim the tops and bases from the zucchini and discard. Slice the zucchini in half lengthwise and carefully scoop a channel along each centre, removing the seeds. Arrange the zucchini on a shallow oven tray, drizzle with olive oil and bake for 10 minutes until just tender.

    Not sure about this. Mine was kind of flavorless. I want to try it again but instead of olive oil use some compound butter.

      Is the serving really per zucchini boat (half a zucchini)?!

        Very good. My filling remained very crumbly and dry. I added about a teaspoon of Parmesan to the top of each and put them under the broiler. This didn’t hold the filling down as I had hoped it would. Next time I will not grate the Parmesan quite as fine as I did this time and will hopefully get a better melt. Still, I thoroughly enjoyed them. The flavor was spot-on.
