Slow Cooked Zucchini with Caprese Couscous

This veggie-centric meal is a vibrant combination of ingredients and flavors. Split and scored zucchini are seasoned with olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and pepper before being cooked until fork-tender. A little session under the broiler caramelizes the tops of the zucchini for a photo worthy finish. A side dish of Israeli couscous, cherry tomatoes, and fresh mini-mozzarella dressed with a little sprinkle of fresh basil is a delicious accompaniment to the zucchini. A taste of summer, no matter the time of year. Please always check your food to ensure your food has been cooked to safe serving temperatures.
