  • 1 1 1 medium zucchini, thinly sliced lengthwise
  • 1 1 1 medium yellow squash, thinly sliced lengthwise
  • 1 1 1 red bell pepper, seeded and quartered
  • 1/2 1/2 1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 2 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 8-ounce 8-ounce pieces Two 8-ounce pieces naan flatbread
  • 1 1 1 teaspoon fresh oregano
  • 1 1 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
  • 1/2 1/2 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 1/4 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes
  • 1/4 1/4 1/4 cup fresh basil, cut into chiffonade (thin strips)
  • Red pepper flakes, for sprinkling

Preparation

Step 1

Put the ricotta in a strainer set over a bowl and strain in the fridge overnight.

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.

Season the zucchini, squash, bell pepper and onion with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and some salt and pepper. Grill until grill marks appear and the vegetables are slightly tender but still a little al dente, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board and cut into bite-size pieces.

Brush the naan with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, then sprinkle with the oregano, thyme and garlic powder. Top each piece of naan with half of the grilled vegetables and sun-dried tomatoes. Dollop with the ricotta and season with salt and pepper. Bake until the bread starts to get crispy, 12 to 15 minutes.

Finish with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of basil and red pepper flakes before serving.
