Broiled Portobellos With Zucchini-Scallion Topping
- 1 1/2 pounds zucchini, trimmed and grated coarse
- 2 tablespoons salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 scallions, sliced thin
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 3 tablespoons water
- 3 tablespoons basil, chopped coarse
- 2 pounds portobello caps
- In a sieve, toss zucchini with salt and drain 20 minutes. Rinse under cold water and drain well, pushing hard to extract liquid.
- In a skillet heat 2 teaspoons oil over moderate heat until hot but not smoking and cook scallions and garlic with 2 tablespoons water, covered, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 3 minutes.
- In a bowl mix together zucchini, scallion mixture, basil, and salt and pepper.
- Preheat broiler.
- In a small bowl, stir together remaining teaspoon oil and remaining tablespoon water. Lightly brush portobellos and season with salt and pepper. Put mushroom, cap up, on a rack and broil 2 minutes from heat for about 4 minutes. Turn mushrooms over, and heap zucchini mixture in a mound among caps. Broil until zucchini is crisp-tender, about 6 minutes.
- Garnish with basil sprigs.
