Ingredients
2mediumzucchinis (1- 1½ pounds)
1Tablespooncanola oil
½teaspoongranulated garlic
¼teaspoonkosher salt
½teaspoonItalian seasoning
⅕teaspoonblack pepper
2Tablespoonsgrated Parmesan cheese
2TablespoonsPanko
Instructions
Preheat oven to 450ºF.
Cut ends off zucchinis. Cut in half the short way. To create zucchini sticks, cut each half lengthwise, then into lengthwise halves or thirds again, depending on the size of the zucchini. Dry sticks with a paper towel.
Combine oil, granulated garlic, salt, Italian seasoning, and pepper in a bowl. Add zucchini and using clean hands or a spatula, toss to coat. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese and Panko on top, and toss to coat again.
Spread zucchini sticks on a baking sheet in a single layer. Place cut sides down for best browning. Press any loose topping onto sticks. Roast ~12 minutes or until the sides touching the pan are brown and sticks are easily pierced with a fork. Enjoy!
Notes
If zucchini sticks to the pan after cooking, allow to cool for 5 minutes, and then it will naturally release.
