DIRECTIONS
Thinly slice the zucchini lengthwise, using a slicer if you have one. Mix the crumbled bread with chopped herbs, Parmesan and chili powder.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Brush 4 ramekins or other individual ovenproof dishes with some of the olive oil. Place a layer of the zucchini slices on the bottom and sprinkle with half the bread and herb mixture. Arrange 3 shrimp on top of each, scatter a little more of the bread and herbs over them, add salt to taste and moisten with a thin stream of oil. Cover with more zucchini slices, then the remaining bread mixture, drizzle on more oil and salt lightly. Cover the ramekins tightly with foil and poke a few holes in the foil with a toothpick. Bake in the oven for 5 minutes. Serve at once.
