Crispy Baked Zucchini Chips

Crispy Baked Zucchini Chips

Ingredients:

• 2 medium zucchinis
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/2 cup bread crumbs (Panko for extra crunch)
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
2. Prepare Zucchini: Slice the zucchinis into thin rounds, about 1/8 inch thick.
3. Prepare Coating Mixture: In a shallow bowl, mix together the grated Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
4. Prepare Egg Wash: In another bowl, beat the egg and add the olive oil, mixing until well combined.
5. Coat Zucchini Slices: Dip each zucchini slice into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off. Then, coat the slice in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to ensure it sticks.
6. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the coated zucchini slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. For extra crispiness, you can lightly spray the top of the zucchini slices with olive oil spray.
7. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the zucchini chips are golden brown and crispy. You may need to flip them halfway through baking to ensure even crispiness.
8. Serve: Allow the zucchini chips to cool slightly before serving. They are best enjoyed warm and crispy.

Tips:

• Thickness: Ensure the zucchini slices are uniformly thin for even cooking.
• Extra Crunch: Use Panko breadcrumbs instead of regular bread crumbs for a crunchier texture.
• Variations: Experiment with different spices or add a bit of cayenne pepper for a spicy kick.
