Ingredients
  

  • 3 medium zucchini
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 medium shallot thinly sliced
  • cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • Optional: lemon wedges, red pepper flakes

Instructions
 

  • Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Slice off both ends of each zucchini with a sharp knife. Cut each zucchini in half lengthwise, then cut each half lengthwise again to create long wedges. A mandoline with a hand guard helps create uniform pieces.
  • Add the zucchini wedges to a large mixing bowl. Pour olive oil over them and season with oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss with your hands or tongs until evenly coated.
  • Lay the zucchini on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, cut side down. Distribute the thinly sliced shallot on top of and around the zucchini.
  • Roast for 20–25 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through with a fish spatula or regular spatula, until golden brown and tender with caramelized shallots.
  • Move the roasted zucchini to a serving platter. Top with crumbled feta cheese and chopped fresh parsley while warm. Squeeze lemon juice over the top and add red pepper flakes if desired. Serve hot or at room temperature.
