Cookware
baking sheet pan · chef's knife · colander · cutting board · julienne peeler (optional) · measuring cups · measuring spoons · oven mitts · small saucepan · stirring spoon · tongs
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Slice the zucchini into noodles using a julienne or regular peeler, and spread them along with the mushrooms on a baking sheet. Drizzle with oil and dust with Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper; toss to coat and spread in an even layer.
- Roast until the vegetables are tender and lightly browned, about 10–15 minutes, tossing halfway through so they cook evenly.
- Meanwhile, combine the marinara sauce and cream in a small saucepan. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, then remove from heat and cover to keep warm.
- When the vegetables finish roasting, remove the sheet from the oven and transfer the zucchini noodles and mushrooms to serving plates if you prefer, or keep them on the sheet for a rustic presentation.
- Pour the warm sauce over the zucchini and mushrooms and sprinkle with Parmesan to distribute evenly.
- Gently toss to coat the noodles and vegetables with the sauce, and adjust with additional salt and pepper if needed.
- Serve hot, dividing the portions between plates and enjoying immediately.
Two tips
- Prep ahead: slice zucchini and mushrooms earlier in the day and refrigerate for quicker assembly.
- Serving idea: finish with a little extra Parmesan on top for a sharper bite.
