Instructions roasted zucchini with Parmesan crust and spices

  • In a bowl, mix grated Parmesan cheese with salt and ground pepper. Then add paprika and rosemary and mix well. Now add more spice according to your preferences. I have used oregano but you can also use marjoram, thyme, cumin, garlic or smoked paprika. Just follow your instincts.
  • Wash your courgettes and remove the tips. Now you have to cut the zucchini crosswise following the length. Brush each courgette with extra virgin olive oil.

Baked zucchini recipe – baking time

  • As you have noticed in the previous photo for this recipe I am using “two pan” baking methood. Line your pan with parchment paper. Place the rack on top. Then add your courgettes. This type of cooking allows free air circulation and optimal baking even underneath your veggies. The parchment paper on the pan underneath is used to catch any falling seasoning or melted cheese. This type of cooking is absolutely optional. It’s just a trick I like to use in this recipe. If you don’t like this type of cooking, you can simply place your zucchini on the baking tray clined with baking paper.
  • With your fingers, cover each piece of zucchini with the prepared mix of grated cheese and spices and place on the rack.
  • Bake in a preheated static oven at 200 – 210 ° C for 20 – 25 minutes. If you prefer your courgettes more crunchy inside, cook them for about 20 minutes, otherwise continue baking to make them become more soft.
  • Remove from the oven and serve immediately. If you like, you can sprinkle them with fresh chopped parsley or chilli flakes or even lemon juice.
