Cooking Tips:
To ensure the zucchini slices roast evenly and develop a nice golden color, spread them out in a single layer on the baking tray. Avoid overcrowding the tray to allow for proper airflow and even cooking. When sautéing the mushrooms, make sure the pan is hot before adding them to achieve a nice sear and caramelization. Feel free to customize the seasoning to your taste by adjusting the amount of salt, pepper flakes, and paprika.
