Deliciously crispy and flavorful, these Garlic Parmesan Baked Zucchini Slices make a perfect healthy snack or side dish, combining fresh zucchini with savory garlic and cheesy Parmesan.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium zucchinis, sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
  3. Add the zucchini slices to the bowl and toss until evenly coated with the garlic oil mixture.
  4. Arrange the zucchini slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the zucchini slices.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the zucchini is tender and the Parmesan is golden and crispy.
  7. Remove from oven and garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired. Serve warm.

Notes

For extra crispiness, you can broil the zucchini slices for an additional 1-2 minutes at the end of baking—just watch closely to prevent burning.
