2 t. grated/zested lemon peel
1 garlic clove, minced
½ t. oregano
2 T. grated Parmesan cheese

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil; spray with cooking spray.
Cut zucchini lengthwise into quarters, then cut in half widthwise.
Lay the zucchini spears on the prepared baking sheet; sprinkle with salt and pepper.
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice and peel, garlic and oregano; drizzle over zucchini spears. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheeses.

Serve immediately.
