Zucchini Parmesan Chips!
I will pretty much eat anything that has parmesan cheese in it. Â So when I came across this recipe for a crispy zucchini chip, I couldn’t resist. Â I will say it’s soooo much better when it’s crunchy and crispy like a potato chip — it needs to be crispy! Â This is a great vegetable to use as a side dish or even as a snack. Â And if I made it, it has to be easy!Â
This recipe starts with 2 medium, fresh zucchini. Â If you prefer squash, you could use squash too. Â Before you cut these up, pre-heat your oven to 450 degrees. Â It needs to be really hot for these to brown.
Cut the zucchini into chips. Â Season with salt, pepper, garlic powder. Â You will then add olive oil and the egg white. Â The egg white holds the cheese and bread crumbs in place. Â Make sure you take out the yoke of the egg — you only want the egg white.
Using a flat bowl, mix the parmesan cheese and panko bread crumbs. Â You could use regular bread crumbs and next time I am going to try my Italian bread crumbs to see if it changes the taste. Â You will then put the coated zucchini slices in the cheese. Â Make sure it’s fully coated with the cheese and bread crumbs.
After greasing the baking pan with some olive oil, place the zucchini chips in rows like this. Â Bake for about 45 minutes. Â I like it really crispy! Â You may want to take it out earlier if you don’t want it too crispy. Â Either way, sprinkle some sea salt on top for added flavor once it’s finished.
Enjoy these with a meal or by itself! Â These are fun for the kids too!
