This recipe provides instructions for making savory, slightly crispy zucchini roasted with garlic and Parmesan cheese.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 medium zucchini
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Wash the zucchini and trim off the ends. Cut the zucchini into 1/2-inch thick rounds or half-moons.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the cut zucchini with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  4. Spread the seasoned zucchini in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Do not overcrowd the pan.
  5. Roast for 15 minutes.
  6. Remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the zucchini.
  7. Return the pan to the oven and roast for another 5 to 7 minutes, or until the zucchini is tender and the cheese is golden brown and bubbly.
  8. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For crispier zucchini, cut the pieces slightly thinner, about 1/4 inch thick.
  • If you do not have parchment paper, lightly grease the baking sheet with oil.
  • You can add a pinch of red pepper flakes with the garlic for a little heat.
