Ingredients:

Serving

1/4 cup pine nuts
3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 large zucchini, cut into 3/4 inch chunks (about 1 lb--i used 2 smaller ones)
1 lemon , zest stripped off in large pieces
1/2 tsp kosher salt
fresh ground black pepper , to taste

Directions:

Preheat oven to 425°F.
Toss pine nuts with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and spread out on a sheet pan; toast the nuts in the oven, shaking the pan about half-way through, about 7 minutes, or until evenly brown.
Transfer to a serving bowl; reserve baking sheet.
Toss the zucchini with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, garlic, lemon zest, salt and pepper (I let marinate at this point); spread out on the baking sheet and roast until crisp tender and slightly brown, about 10-12 minutes (I tossed it and shook it around about half-way through).
Toss zucchini and lemon with the nuts.
NOTE: The original recipe called for 6 ounces of fresh ricotta, scattered in dollops on top right before serving. I omitted this.
