olive oil spray

Crispy, golden zucchini topped with parmesan and breadcrumbs. A simple side dish that turns humble zucchini into something you'll actually crave.
1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Position rack in upper third of oven.
2. Trim zucchini ends. Cut medium zucchini into quarters lengthwise; cut large zucchini into sixths (halve, then cut each half into 3 wedges).
3. Place zucchini on a baking sheet. Lightly spray each piece with olive oil.
4. Mix together the remaining four ingredients, breadcrumbs, parmesan, salt and pepper.
5. Coat each piece of zucchini by rolling it in the bread crumb mixture.
6. Arrange the coated zucchini in two rows, touching each other, skin-side down.
7. Lightly spray each slice with the olive oil.
8. Bake 12 minutes until parmesan is golden and zucchini is tender but not soggy.
9. Serve immediately.
