Instructions
1: Preheat the oven to 425°F. Place a cast iron or oven-safe skillet in the oven for 15-20 minutes. 2: Prep the zucchini. Add the zucchini to a plate and top liberally with salt. Let the zucchini sit for 15 minutes then pat dry with paper towels. Do not rinse. 3: While the zucchini sits, make the sesame mixture. Add the sesame seeds, granulated onion, and salt to a plate. Mix to combine and set aside. 4: Add the zucchini to a bowl, add the corn starch and toss. Add the olive oil and toss again. Individually, dip the flat side of the zucchini in the sesame mixture and place them into a plate. 5: Remove the pan from the oven, then add the zucchini face down. Place in the oven for 30 minutes, flipping about 7 minutes before the end. 6: While the zucchini roasts, make the sauce. Add the mayo, sweet chili, sriracha, and lime juice to a small bowl. Mix to combine and set aside. 7: Serve the zucchini topped with the sauce, cilantro, peanuts, and a drizzle of sesame oil.View original recipe
