Zucchini Pizza
4 servings
35 minutes
Zucchini pizza is an original and light version of classic Italian pizza, where tender, slightly sweet zucchini replaces the dough. The dish combines the crispy crust of fried zucchini, the juiciness of tomatoes, and the spiciness of garlic. Tender chicken meat adds heartiness, while melted cheese provides a delicious texture. The recipe's history is inspired by Italian cuisine, which values fresh vegetables and simplicity in preparation. It's an ideal option for those seeking healthy eating without sacrificing rich flavor. The dish can be served as a main course or appetizer and pairs wonderfully with light salads and refreshing drinks.
