Preparation Steps
1
Warm the piadina wraps in a dry skillet over medium heat for 1-2 minutes on each side, until lightly golden brown.
2
Halve the zucchini lengthwise, then slice into thin rounds. Brush the zucchini slices with half of the olive oil and grill or pan-fry them until lightly browned.
3
Wash and roughly chop the basil. In a food processor or with an immersion blender, blend the basil, remaining olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper into a smooth cream. If it's too thick, add a little water or olive oil until you reach the desired consistency.
4
Spread the basil cream evenly over the piadina wraps.
5
Arrange the grilled zucchini slices on top of the basil cream, then sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
6
Fold the piadina in half and serve fresh and warm.
