Let’s Prepare Super Easy Gratinated Zucchini
Wash the zucchini, dry them well, and remove any waste parts. Using a cutting board and a sharp knife, slice them lengthwise into not-too-thin slices.
Line the baking pan with parchment paper and place the long zucchini slices on top, lightly salt them.
In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, basil, onion, a pinch of salt, 1 tablespoon of oil, and mix with a spoon until you get a homogeneous mixture.
Spread the mixture over the zucchini, drizzle the remaining oil, and preheat the oven to 482°F.
Once the oven is hot, bake the zucchini for 20 minutes until they are nicely golden.
Once the zucchini are cooked, remove them from the oven and pour the vinegar over while still hot. Let them rest for a few minutes and enjoy the deliciousness!
