Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs zucchini, sliced into 1/4 inch rounds or spears
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/4 cup finely grated parmesan cheese

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C).
  2. In a large bowl, toss the zucchini slices or spears with the olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until every piece is evenly coated.
  3. Spread the zucchini in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper, ensuring at least a half-inch of space between each slice.
  4. Roast for 12-15 minutes until the edges are deep golden brown and the centers are tender.
  5. Remove the pan from the oven and immediately sprinkle the parmesan cheese evenly over the top.
  6. Return the pan to the oven or under the broiler for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
