Baked Parmesan Zucchini

Ingredients

• 2 medium zucchini (about 1 pound), sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons olive oil (for drizzling)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or lightly greasing it.
3. In a medium bowl, mix together the grated Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.
4. In another bowl, whisk the egg until it’s frothy.
5. Dip each zucchini slice into the egg, allowing the excess to drip off, then dredge it in the breadcrumb mixture until fully coated.
6. Place the coated zucchini on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
7. Drizzle the tops lightly with olive oil.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the zucchini is tender and the tops are golden brown.
9. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
