Ingredients

  • 1 pound zucchini
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup Italian bread crumbs
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic salt

Instructions

  • Cut the zucchini wedges. For smaller zucchini, cut it into fourths, for larger zucchini, cut in half and then into thirds.
  • Spray a 9 by 13 inch pan with cooking spray and place zucchini skin side down.  Cover with wax paper and microwave for 6 minutes.
  • While the zucchini is cooking, mix the bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, and garlic salt in a small bowl.
  • When the zucchini comes out of the oven, place a fork in the tablespoon of butter and use that to rub it over the steaming hot zucchini.
  • Carefully dip the fleshy part of the zucchini into the cheese bread crumb mixture.  Then place it back skin side down in the 9 by 13 inch pan.
  • Once all the zucchini is covered (you will have extra bread crumb and cheese mixture), place it under the broiler for 1 to 4 minutes.  Watch it carefully so it does not burn and remove once it has browned.
  • Serve hot and enjoy!
