Francesca's Zucchini "Carpaccio"

Ingredients

  • 2 medium zucchini (about 3/4 pound total), trimmed
  • 1/3 cup packed arugula leaves, washed well, spun dry, and chopped coarse
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar if desired
  • fine sea salt to taste
  • freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • a 1/4-pound piece of Parmesan

Instructions

  1. Slice zucchini into paper-thin rounds either in a food processor fitted with a 1-mm. blade or with a mandoline or other hand-held slicing device. Arrange zucchini rounds in one layer, overlapping them slightly, on a large (about 8 by 12-inch) platter and sprinkle with arugula. Drizzle oil and vinegar over zucchini and season with salt and pepper. With a vegetable peeler shave curls of Parmesan on top.
