Equipment

  • Cutting instrument of choice (spiralizer etc.)

Ingredients
  

  • Raw zucchini
  • Olive oil
  • Lime juice
  • Pepper
  • Salt
  • Thyme

Instructions
 

  • Give zucchini the desired shape by cutting: Zucchini can be cut in many styles, including long, short, and medium fibral (thread-like) and spiral shapes using the right instruments like the spiralizer. Another effective way to enjoy it is by slicing the zucchini lengthwise by chopping it with a clean cutting board knife.
  • Clean the noodles thoroughly: Wash the noodles and ensure all the strands are squeaky clean before cooking.
  • Prepare the oven and set medium-high temperature: Placement of the rack is one of the most critical parts of cooking. Make sure to open your oven wide open and use the oven rack on the top shelf.
  • Set a perfect temperature inside the oven before putting the zucchini noodles inside. The ideal temperature is 4500 degrees
  • Please don’t waste the sheets: Slice out the zucchini from its skin. Lay this skin covering on the cookie tray of any oven. The peel is tasty as well as healthy.
  • Here comes the Olive oil: Take a brush and get to work. Use olive oil and make sure that each strand of zucchini noodles is covered with oil. It is advised not to overdo it. Oil is an integral part, but too much oil spoils the taste of every food.
  • Follow the golden time rule: Place the oil-sprinkled zucchini noodles into the oven. Set the timer to 5 minutes. This is mostly enough to cook the zucchini.
  • Even if things don’t go well, let it heat for an additional three minutes. Keep an eye on the color.
  • Done and dusted: Remove the zucchini noodles after it achieves a soft brown color. You can taste a string or two to ensure good taste and tenderness.
  • Season and garnish it elegantly: Salt and pepper are used according to the preference of people. But mild salt and pepper can improve its taste significantly. Adding a dash of lime also makes it look presentable and makes it tangy. In the end, put some thyme on the side and serve it hot!
