Directions

Prep 15 minCook 25 min
  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 400° F and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment or a silicone liner.

  2. 2

    Heat a sauté pan over medium-high and cook the ground turkey, breaking it up, until browned and cooked through. Drain any excess fat and set aside.

  3. 3

    Halve each zucchini lengthwise. If any of the pieces rock, trim a thin slice from the bottom so it sits flat. Pat the cut sides dry and arrange on the prepared sheet, cut side up.

  4. 4

    In a small bowl, combine the olive oil and minced garlic. Brush lightly over the cut sides of the zucchini, then season with salt and pepper. Spread marinara over each zucchini half, leaving a small rim bare.

  5. 5

    Sprinkle the zucchini evenly with the mozzarella, then the Parmesan. Top with the cooked turkey, pressing lightly so it adheres.

  6. 6

    Bake until the zucchini is tender-crisp and the cheese is melted, 12–18 minutes depending on desired doneness.

  7. 7

    Remove from the oven and finish with chopped oregano. Serve warm.
