Cheesy zucchini side dish (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
01 -
2 medium zucchini, sliced into 1/4 to 1/2-inch rounds
02 -
1 tablespoon olive oil
03 -
Salt and pepper to taste
04 -
1 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese (pre-shredded is also fine)
# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat your oven to 450°F and line a broil-safe baking sheet with foil for easier cleanup (this step is optional but recommended).
02 -
Arrange the zucchini slices on your baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Toss them around until they're all nicely coated, then spread them out in a single layer.
03 -
Sprinkle a generous amount of salt and pepper over all the zucchini slices.
04 -
Top each zucchini slice with a nice pile of parmesan cheese.
05 -
Bake on the center rack for about 10 minutes, until you can easily pierce the zucchini with a fork. Then switch to the broiler on high and broil for 2-3 minutes, watching carefully until the cheese gets bubbly and develops a beautiful golden-brown color.
06 -
Serve immediately while the cheese is still warm and melty. Enjoy!
