Ingredients
  

2 medium zucchinis

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1/2 cup breadcrumbs (panko preferred for extra crunch)

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

2 large eggs

1 tablespoon olive oil (optional for greasing)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

    Prepare the Zucchini: Wash and dry the zucchinis. Slice them into thin rounds (about 1/4 inch thick). For a crunchy texture, try to keep the slices uniform in thickness.

      Make the Coating Mix: In a medium bowl, combine the grated Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure that the seasonings are evenly distributed.

        Prepare the Egg Wash: In another bowl, whisk the eggs until well blended. This will help the coating adhere to the zucchini.

          Coat the Zucchini Rounds: Dip each zucchini slice into the egg wash, allowing any excess to drip off. Then, immediately coat the slice in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing lightly to ensure it's well covered. Place the coated slices on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.

            Bake: If desired, lightly drizzle or brush the zucchini chips with olive oil for added crispiness. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chips are golden brown and crisp.

              Cool and Serve: Once baked, remove the zucchini chips from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack for a few minutes. This will help them crisp up even more. Serve warm as a delicious snack or appetizer!
