Description
Crispy and cheesy, these Parmesan Zucchini Chips are a healthy and delicious snack or side dish, baked to perfection with a flavorful coating of Parmesan and breadcrumbs.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 medium zucchinis, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (panko or regular)
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or cooking spray
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- Slice the zucchinis into thin rounds, about 1/8-inch thick.
- In a bowl, mix Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- Toss the zucchini slices with olive oil or spray them lightly to help the coating stick.
- Press each zucchini slice into the Parmesan mixture, coating both sides well.
- Arrange the coated slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
- Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Use a mandoline for evenly sliced zucchini.
- For extra crispiness, broil for 1–2 minutes at the end of baking.
- Serve immediately for best texture.
- Can be paired with a dipping sauce like marinara or ranch.
