Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium zucchinis, sliced into ¼-inch thick rounds
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • Optional: chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Slice 4 medium zucchinis into ¼-inch thick rounds.
  3. Mince 3 garlic cloves and grate ½ cup Parmesan cheese.
  4. In a large bowl, toss the zucchini rounds with 2 tablespoons olive oil until coated.
  5. In a separate bowl, combine minced garlic, grated Parmesan, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon black pepper.
  6. Sprinkle the garlic-Parmesan mixture over the zucchini and toss to coat evenly.
  7. Arrange the zucchini slices in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them so they do not overlap.
  8. Roast in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
  9. Optional: broil for the last 2–3 minutes, watching closely to avoid burning.
  10. Remove from the oven, garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired, and serve immediately.

Notes

For even more crunch, switch on the broiler for the last 2-3 minutes—just keep an eye so they don’t overdo it., Make sure zucchini slices are in a single layer to roast evenly., Fresh zucchini is recommended over frozen for best texture., Parmesan cheese aids in crispness, but Pecorino Romano or vegan Parmesan alternatives can be used., Reheat leftovers in a hot oven or under broiler to regain crispiness.
