Step 1
Start by heating your oven to 350°F. Lightly spray an 8- or 9-inch pie dish with cooking spray to keep things from sticking. Slice the zucchini thinly—about an eighth to a quarter inch thick—and then layer the slices in the dish, overlapping them from the outside edge toward the center like shingles on a roof. In a bowl, mix together the salt, spices, breadcrumbs, and Parmesan cheese. Drizzle in the oil and stir until all the breadcrumbs are nicely coated. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the zucchini, making sure to fill in all the little gaps between the slices. Pop the dish in the oven and bake for about 30 to 35 minutes, until the topping turns golden and crispy and the zucchini is tender. Let it cool for a few minutes before serving so the topping sets up nicely.
