Equipment

Parchment paper
Sheet pan

Ingredients

2 medium sized zucchinis
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon dried dill (or substitute dried thyme, dried basil, dried oregano, or any other dried herb you prefer)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
Slice 2 medium sized zucchinis into 1/3 inch thick rounds, then place them on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper.
Sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon dried dill, and 1/4 teaspoon salt on top of the zucchini slices.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil on top of the zucchini slices.
Use your hands to toss the zucchini in the oil and spices, ensuring that each slice is coated in oil.
Spread the zucchini slices in an even layer in the pan.
Bake for 20-25 minutes (20 if you prefer a firmer texture and 25 if you prefer a softer texture).
Serve hot or at room temperature.

Notes

Optional addition: when the zucchini is finished roasting, sprinkle one tablespoon of finely chopped fresh herbs such as basil, parsley, or chives on top before serving.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days.
