Ingredients
-
2 medium zucchinis
-
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
-
1/2 cup breadcrumbs (panko or regular)
-
1 teaspoon garlic powder
-
1 teaspoon onion powder
-
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
-
1/2 teaspoon salt
-
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
-
1 large egg
-
Olive oil spray (or any cooking spray)
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven:
-
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
-
-
Prepare the zucchini:
-
Wash the zucchinis and slice them into thin rounds (about 1/4-inch thick).
-
Pat them dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture, which will help them crisp up during baking.
-
-
Prepare the breading mixture:
-
In a shallow bowl, combine Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Stir until everything is well mixed.
-
-
Prepare the egg wash:
-
In another shallow bowl, whisk the egg until well beaten.
-
-
Coat the zucchini:
-
Dip each zucchini round into the egg wash, making sure it’s fully coated. Then dip it into the Parmesan-breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently so the coating sticks well.
-
-
Arrange on baking sheet:
-
Place the coated zucchini rounds on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, making sure they don’t overlap.
-
-
Spray with olive oil:
-
Lightly spray the zucchini chips with olive oil to help them crisp up while baking.
-
-
Bake the zucchini chips:
-
Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping them halfway through the baking time. Bake until the chips are golden brown and crispy.
-
-
Serve:
-
Once baked, remove the zucchini chips from the oven and let them cool slightly. Serve warm with a dipping sauce like marinara, ranch, or a garlic aioli.
