2. Line a large tray with parchment paper. Scatter the sliced zucchini on the tray. Sprinkle with salt & black pepper to taste.
3. Bake in preheated 380F/193C oven for 10 minutes. Position tray on second to last oven rack.
4. Once baked, remove the tray from your oven & place it on your counter. Let the sliced zucchini cool.
5. Peel, wash & finely chop the vegetables.
6. Let’s make the sauce. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add olive oil. Add the chopped vegetables, salt & pepper to taste. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
