Instructions
1
Preheat oven to 200°C (top and bottom heat), prepare baking tray.
2
Wash the zucchini and cut it into slices about half a centimeter thick. Crack the egg into a shallow bowl and whisk it. Mix the breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, salt, garlic powder, and some freshly ground pepper in a second bowl. Place the flour in a third bowl or a shallow bowl.
3
First, coat the zucchini slices in flour so they are lightly dusted on both sides, then dip them in egg on both sides, and finally roll them in the Parmesan mixture. Place the breaded zucchini slices on the prepared baking sheet and repeat for the rest. Set the remaining Parmesan mixture aside.
4
Place the zucchini chips in the oven and bake for 15 minutes at 200°C (390°F). Then carefully turn the chips over. Sprinkle the remaining panko-parmesan mixture over the baking sheet and bake for another 5 to 7 minutes, or until the zucchini slices are golden brown and crispy all over. Serve the zucchini chips hot.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Moisture Removal is Critical 💧Pat zucchini slices thoroughly dry with paper towels and salt them 15 minutes before breading to draw out excess moisture, which prevents soggy chips and ensures maximum crispiness.
- Double-Dredging Technique 🥚Coat zucchini in flour first, then egg, then breadcrumb-Parmesan mixture for a superior crunch; let the breaded chips rest on a wire rack for 10 minutes before baking to set the coating.
- Parchment and Wire Rack Strategy 📋Bake on a parchment-lined wire rack placed over a baking sheet to allow air circulation underneath, creating even browning and preventing the bottoms from becoming greasy.
- Parmesan Cheese Selection 🧀Use freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano rather than pre-grated cheese, as it melts more evenly and develops superior flavor and texture than varieties containing anti-caking agents.
- Optimal Oven Temperature and Timing 🔥Bake at 400°F for 18-22 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden-brown; this temperature is high enough for crisping without burning the Parmesan or drying out the zucchini interior.
