  • Arrange zucchini rounds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake on the upper rack until just tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven. Turn broiler to high.

  • Evenly top the zucchini with cheese. Broil until melted and lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Top with sour cream and bacon and garnish with chives (or scallion greens) and pepper, if desired.
