Ingredients:

Serving

4 zucchini , halved lengthwise
1/4 cup olive oil
3 sweet onions, chopped
1/2 tsp salt , or to taste
1/4 tsp ground black pepper , or to taste
1 cup short-grain white rice
1 (16 oz) can diced tomatoes, drained and juice reserved
1 cup water , or more as needed
2 tbsp chopped fresh mint, or more to taste
1 cup chopped fresh parsley
3 tbsp chardonnay wine
1/2 (14 oz) package little smoked sausages, diced

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease the inside of a casserole dish.
Scoop pulp from the center of each zucchini half, leaving a 1/2-inch deep shell. Chop pulp and reserve. Place zucchini shells in a pot of lightly salted water; bring to a boil. Cook until zucchini are slightly tender, about 5 minutes. Drain and arrange zucchini in bottom of prepared casserole dish.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir onions and zucchini pulp until onions are softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper. Add rice and reserved juice from canned tomatoes; cook until liquid is nearly evaporated, stirring regularly, about 5 minutes. Add tomatoes and stir to combine.
Stir water in 1/2 cup increments into rice mixture until rice has absorbed all the water and is almost tender, 10 to 15 more minutes. Add mint, parsley, wine, and sausages; cook until heated through and rice is tender, adding additional water if needed, 5 to 10 minutes. Spoon rice mixture over zucchini halves in casserole dish.
Bake casserole in preheated oven until zucchini are tender, about 20 minutes.
