  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional, for a smoky note)
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme or Italian seasoning

  • 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese, loosely packed, plus 2 tablespoons for serving
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (or chives) for garnish
  • Zest of 1/2 lemon (optional, for brightness)
