- 3 to 4 zucchini , sliced into 1/4-inch to 1/2-inch rounds
- 2 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- Seas salt and fresh ground pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup whole grain bread crumbs
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- cooking spray
Directions:
-
Preheat oven to 450.
-
Line 3 baking sheets with foil; lightly spray with cooking spray and set aside.
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine zucchini slices, olive oil, salt and pepper; mix until well combined.
-
In a separate bowl, combine panko crumbs, Parmesan cheese, oregano, and garlic powder.
-
Dip slices of zucchini in cheese mixture and coat on both sides, pressing on the coating to stick.
-
Place the zucchini slices in a single layer on the previously prepared baking sheets.
-
Lightly spray each slice with cooking spray. This will help with achieving a crunchier texture.
-
Bake for 10 minutes; rotate pan and continue to bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until chips are golden brown.
-
Remove from oven. Cool before serving.
