Zucchini Parmesan, also known as Zucchini alla Parmigiana, is a classic Italian dish that originated in the Campania region. It is a delicious and hearty vegetarian dish that features layers of thinly sliced zucchini, marinara sauce, and melted cheese. The dish is believed to have been inspired by the famous Eggplant Parmesan, or Melanzane alla Parmigiana, which is a staple in Southern Italian cuisine. The key to a perfect Zucchini Parmesan lies in the quality of the ingredients, particularly the zucchini, which should be fresh and firm, and the marinara sauce, which should be rich and flavorful. Some chefs also add a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs for an extra crunch. Today, the best versions of this dish can be found in authentic Italian restaurants, especially those in the Campania region. It's a must-try for anyone looking to experience the true flavors of Italian cuisine.
