Ingredients:

  • 2 medium zucchinis (approx. 1 lb / 450g), sliced into 1/2-inch rounds or sticks
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp cracked black pepper

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Slice the zucchinis into uniform 1/2-inch rounds or sticks.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced zucchini with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss gently until evenly coated.
  3. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the zucchini and toss one last time until the cheese clings to the surfaces.
  4. Arrange the zucchini in a single layer on the baking sheet, ensuring the pieces are not touching to avoid steaming.
  5. Bake for 10–12 minutes. For a crispy crust, turn the broiler on high for the final 2 minutes until the cheese is mahogany-colored and bubbling.
