Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step
2 mins

In a large bowl, toss the zucchini cubes with olive oil, ensuring they are evenly coated. (2 minutes)

03

Step
3 mins

Add the Italian-style breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, and minced garlic to the bowl. Season generously with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. (3 minutes)

04

Step
2 mins

Mix all the ingredients together, ensuring the zucchini is well coated with the breadcrumb mixture. (2 minutes)

05

Step
40 mins

Spread the zucchini in a single layer on a non-stick baking sheet. (2 minutes)

06

Step
5 mins

Bake in the preheated oven, stirring every 10 to 15 minutes to ensure even browning, until the zucchini is tender and the topping is golden brown and crisp. (40 minutes)

07

Step

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. (5 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the breadcrumb mixture.
Fresh herbs like parsley, basil, or oregano can also be added to the breadcrumb mixture for a more aromatic dish.
If you don't have Italian-style breadcrumbs, you can use plain breadcrumbs and add Italian seasoning to taste.
To prevent sticking, you may line the baking sheet with parchment paper.
This roasted zucchini pairs perfectly with grilled chicken, fish, or pasta dishes.
