Ingredients
  

2 medium zucchinis

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 cup breadcrumbs (preferably panko for extra crunch)

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs (oregano, basil, thyme)

½ teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

2 large eggs

2 tablespoons olive oil

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish, optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.

    Prepare the Zucchini: Wash and dry the zucchinis. Slice them into ¼-inch thick rounds. If desired, you can also slice them into thin strips for a different texture.

      Make the Coating Mixture: In a medium bowl, combine the grated Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, dried Italian herbs, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well until evenly incorporated.

        Prepare the Egg Wash: In another bowl, beat the eggs until frothy. Add the olive oil and mix until combined.

          Coat the Zucchini: Dip each zucchini slice into the egg wash, ensuring it’s fully coated. Then, transfer it to the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to ensure the mixture sticks. Place the coated chips on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, leaving some space between each slice.

            Bake the Chips: Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until the zucchini chips are golden brown and crispy. Halfway through baking, flip the chips for even browning.

              Cool and Serve: Once done, remove from the oven and let the chips cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet. For added flavor, sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy as a crunchy snack or a delightful side dish!
