Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb zucchini
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp dried basil
- 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
- 1/2–1 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 475℉. Use a large rimmed baking sheet; greasing is preferred for better roasting.
- Wash the zucchini, pat dry, trim the ends, and slice into 1/4-1/2 inch thick slices.
- In a mixing bowl, combine zucchini, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and seasonings, tossing until evenly coated.
- Spread the seasoned zucchini on the baking sheet in a single layer, leaving some space between slices.
- Top each zucchini slice with grated parmesan cheese.
- Roast for 20-24 minutes until desired doneness is reached, less time for crunchier texture.
Notes
Adjust salt to taste depending on preference.
For a crunchier texture, slice the zucchini thicker.
Using freshly grated parmesan can enhance the flavor.
