Categories     Appetizer     Side Dish

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 to 4 zucchini, (trimmed and cut length-wise into quarters (sticks))
Extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tsp fresh thyme leaves, (no stems)
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp sweet paprika
1/2 tsp black pepper
pinch kosher salt

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Mix together the grated Parmesan, thyme, and spices in a medium bowl.
  • Prepare a large baking sheet that's topped with a wire baking rack. Lightly brush the wire baking rack with extra virgin olive oil (or use a healthy cooking spray.) Place the zucchini spears, skin-side down, on the baking rack in a single layer. Brush each one with extra virgin olive oil.
  • Sprinkle the herb and cheese topping on each zucchini stick so they are all lightly coated.
  • Bake in the heated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until tender. For a crispy golden topping, broil for 2 to 3 minutes more. Watch it carefully so the zucchini does not burn.
  • Serve immediately as an appetizer with a dipping sauce, or as a side next to your protein of choice.
