Quick easy and delicious, this oven roasted zucchini slices is the perfect summer vegetable side dish. Seasoned and roasted with parmesan, they are perfectly cheesy!
Preheat the oven to 425 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place a rack on top of it.
In a large bowl mix oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Add zucchini slices and toss to coat.
Line zucchini slices in a single layer on the rack in the baking sheet and sprinkle each slice with finely grated parmesan cheese on top. Bake for 15 – 20 minutes, or until golden brown on top.
NOTES
Don't cut the zucchini too thinly or they will fall apart during cooking. They should be around 1/4" to 1/2" thick.
Don't cook the zucchini rounds too long. This can make them become too soggy and limp.
If you want to brown them at the end, you can broil them for 1 - 2 minutes. Watch them closely and be careful not to burn them.
To make this recipe vegan, use rennet-free parmesan cheese.
Try this recipe with other seasonings. Dried herbs, paprika, or chili flakes all work great.
Make sure that the oven is fully pre-heated before roasting the zucchini slices.
This is a great low-carb side dish and can be eaten if you are following a keto lifestyle.
