Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large skillet over medium heat, add a drizzle of olive oil. Sauté the chopped onion for about 3-4 minutes until it becomes translucent.
- Once the onion is ready, stir in minced garlic and continue cooking for an additional minute.
- Crumble the Italian sausage into the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes, breaking it apart as it browns.
- Stir in diced bell peppers, dried oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes.
- In a baking dish, layer half of the sliced zucchini at the bottom.
- Top the first layer of zucchini with the sausage mixture, spreading it out evenly.
- Cover with the remaining sliced zucchini, then generously sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan cheese on top.
- Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
- Remove the foil and bake uncovered for an additional 10-15 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
- Let the casserole rest for at least 5 minutes before serving.
