Ingredients
3 ounces goat cheese, at room temperature Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper 1 Tablespoon finely chopped sun-dried tomatoes (oil-packed), well-drained 2 teaspoon fresh basil, chopped 1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped 1 teaspoon olive oil 3 small zucchini, cut into 1/4-inch thick lengthwise strips 2 Tablespoons freshly grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese
Directions
In a bowl, combine goat cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, basil and thyme. Adjust seasonings to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Set aside.
Brush both sides of each zucchini slice with olive oil. Season both sides with kosher salt.
Heat a gas grill to high. Place zucchini strips on grill at a 45 degree angle to grates on grill. Cover and grill until well browned, about 2 minutes per side. Check occasionally and move slices around gently with tongs to prevent them from over-browning - be careful to not over-cook.
When zucchini slices are done, drape over a cooling rack to prevent them from steaming as they cool.
Spread a heaping teaspoon of goat cheese filling over one side of each zucchini slice. Roll zucchini (not to tightly) and put them on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil. (Refrigerate if not using within an hour, but bring back to room temperature before finishing).
Preheat broiler.
Sprinkle zucchini rolls with freshly grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese and brown under broiler for 1 minute. Serve immediately.
