Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 pound zucchini, sliced 1/4-inch thick, at an angle
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Pinch of Hungarian paprika
For the Topping:
- 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs (Japanese)
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 8 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves stripped from the stem, lightly chopped
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Directions
Heat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Brush 1 teaspoon olive oil on the bottom of an 8 by 8-inch baking dish. Arrange the slices of zucchini in the dish with an overlapping pattern in rows or a spiral in a pie dish. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and paprika.
To make the topping: In a bowl, stir together the panko breadcrumbs, thyme, Parmesan cheese and season with a sprinkle of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and stir until all the breadcrumbs are soaked with the yellow tint of the oil. Sprinkle the topping evenly over the dish and bake until the top is golden brown, 30 to 35 minutes.

Add Bacon and it won't be boring!! I also added french's fried onions for the topping. Smelled AMAZING in the oven : Of course, the down side is you have to pre-cook the bacon before hand, so if you have the time, it's worth it!

I normally love Sunny's recipes & pick them because they burst with flavor, but sadly not this one. I used the other reviewers tips to add garlic, mixed the seasoned salt, pepper, paprika with the zuc's before placing in baking dish. The zuc's came out flavorless, but everyone liked the topping. My 13 yr old suggested we use that on fish! LOL Sorry Sunny, but this one wasn't tasty

Very good and easy.
I did dress it up a bit because my husband I and like a lot of flavor.
Added one garlic clove through the press to the olive oil and mixed it with a fork all over the bottom of the pan. Also finely chopped two green onions and put them on before the breadcrumbs.
