Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat the oven to 240°C / 450°F (220°C fan), with the oven shelf set high.

  2. Step 2: Trim the zucchini ends. Cut medium zucchini into quarters lengthwise and large zucchini into sixths: halve each one, then cut each half lengthwise into three wedges.

  3. Step 3: Pile the zucchini on a tray. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of oil, add the salt and pepper, and toss.

  4. Step 4: Arrange the zucchini in two rows, with the pieces touching and the skin side down.

  5. Step 5: Sprinkle the breadcrumbs evenly over the zucchini, followed by the Parmesan. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil.

  6. Step 6: Bake for 12 minutes, until the Parmesan is golden and the zucchini is soft but not soggy.

  7. Step 7: Serve immediately.
