Parmesan Spears
Servings: 4 people
Ingredients
- 4 zuccinis quartered lengthwise
- ½ cup freshly ground parmesan
- ½ tsp dried thyme
- ½ tsp dried oregano
- ½ tsp dried basil
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
- 2-3 tsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley leaves if desired
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat a cooling rack with nonstick spray and place on a baking sheet; set aside.
- In a small bowl, add Parmesan, thyme, oregano, basil and garlic powder. Add salt and pepper to taste (remember that Parmesan cheese is a salty cheese. Be careful when adding more.). Combine all ingredients thoroughly.
- Place zucchini onto prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with Parmesan mixture. Place into oven and bake until tender, about 15 minutes. Then broil for 2-3 minutes, or until crisp and golden brown.
- Serve immediately, garnished with parsley, if desired.
