- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

- Coat the bottom of a baking dish with the olive oil and place the zucchini pieces in the dish.
- Sprinkle with the seasoning salt (I sometimes lightly spray the zucchini with pan spray before sprinkling on the seasoning salt), then with the Parmesan cheese.
- Place uncovered in the oven and bake for 20 minutes on 350 degrees F.
- Serve two pieces to each person as a side dish, and enjoy!

Tips:
- Choose small to medium-sized courgettes, as they are more tender and have fewer seeds.
- Slice the courgettes thinly and evenly, so that they cook evenly.
- Soak the courgette slices in milk for 15 minutes before coating them in flour, as this will help the flour to adhere and prevent the courgettes from becoming soggy.
- Use a good quality Parmesan cheese, as it will give the dish a richer flavor.
- Bake the courgette parmigiana until the cheese is golden brown and bubbly, and the courgettes are tender.
- Serve the courgette parmigiana hot or at room temperature, with a side salad or garlic bread.
