Ingredients

2 zucchini, sliced
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons dry bread crumbs
1 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Prepare a baking dish by greasing it or lining a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the zucchini slices and olive oil, ensuring they are well coated.
In a separate bowl or shallow dish, mix together the Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, oregano, salt, and pepper. Dip each oiled zucchini slice into the bread crumb mixture and arrange them closely on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes, flipping the zucchini slices after 20 minutes to ensure even browning.
