Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish with a drizzle of olive oil.

  2. In a skillet over medium heat, add a tablespoon of olive oil and sauté the sliced onions until they are caramelized and golden brown, about 10 minutes.

  3. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant. Remove from heat and set aside.

  4. Arrange the zucchini rounds in the greased baking dish, overlapping them slightly to create a base layer. Season with salt, pepper, dried thyme, and dried basil.

  5. Layer the cooked onions and garlic over the zucchinis, followed by a layer of sliced tomatoes.

  6. Continue layering until all the zucchinis, onions, and tomatoes are used, finishing with a final layer of tomatoes on top.

  7. Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the top of the vegetables and sprinkle with the grated Parmesan cheese.

  8. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.

  9. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until the cheese is golden brown and bubbly.

  10. Serve hot.
