Ingredients
2 medium zucchini, sliced
⅛-inch thick
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
¼ cup panko breadcrumbs
½ teaspoon garlic powderSalt and black pepper, to taste1 large egg, beatenCooking sprayInstructionsPreheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.Pat the zucchini slices dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.In a shallow bowl, combine the Parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.Place the beaten egg in a separate bowl.Dip each zucchini slice into the beaten egg, allowing any excess to drip off.Press each slice into the Parmesan breadcrumb mixture, coating both sides evenly.
Arrange the coated zucchini slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each slice.Lightly spray the tops with cooking spray.Bake for 20–25 minutes, flipping the chips halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.For extra crispiness, broil for 1–2 minutes at the end, watching carefully to prevent burning.Serving SuggestionsServe warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as:Marinara sauceRanch dressingGarlic aioliSpicy mayoTipsSlice the zucchini evenly for consistent cooking.Patting the zucchini dry helps the coating stick and makes the chips crispier.These are best enjoyed fresh, as they soften when stored. If needed, reheat in the oven or air fryer for a few minutes to restore their crispness.
