Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Wash and dry the zucchini, slice them lengthwise, and scoop out the flesh to create boats.
- Drizzle the zucchini halves with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place them cut side up on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic for 3-4 minutes until translucent.
- Add the chopped zucchini flesh to the skillet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
- Stir in cherry tomatoes, olives, salt, and pepper. Cook for about 5 minutes until tomatoes soften. Remove from heat and mix in feta, oregano, cumin, parsley, basil, lemon zest and half of the lemon juice.
- Spoon the filling into the zucchini boats, drizzle with olive oil, and optionally top with breadcrumbs.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes until the zucchini is tender and tops are browned.
- Drizzle remaining lemon juice over the baked zucchini and garnish with extra parsley and basil before serving.
