Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash the zucchini thoroughly and pat dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Trim off the ends and slice each zucchini into 1/4-inch thick rounds.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced zucchini, extra-virgin olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Toss well to coat the zucchini evenly.
Spread the zucchini slices out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure they are not overlapping to ensure even roasting.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the zucchini slices are tender and slightly browned on the edges.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes.
Transfer the roasted zucchini to a serving plate and sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley before serving.
Serve warm as a side dish or enjoy it as a healthy snack!
