Zucchini Chips

Ingredients

• 1 zucchini (zucchini or squash, sliced)
• 2 eggs (beaten)
• garlic salt (to taste)
• paprika (to taste)
• 1 cup parmesan cheese (grated)
• olive oil (for the tray)

Steps

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).

2. 2

   Cut the zucchini into medium-thickness slices.

3. 3

   In a dish or bowl, beat the two eggs.

4. 4

   In another container, mix the parmesan cheese with the garlic salt and paprika to taste.

5. 5

   Dip each zucchini slice first into the beaten egg and then into the parmesan cheese mixture, ensuring they are well coated.

6. 6

   Grease a baking tray with a little olive oil and place the zucchini slices without crowding them.

7. 7

   Bake for 12 minutes on one side.

8. 8

   Flip the slices and bake for an additional 13 minutes (completing 25 minutes total) until they are golden and crispy.

9. 9

   Serve accompanied by tomato sauce if desired.

Notes

If the zucchini releases a lot of water, you can dry the slices with paper towels before dipping them in the egg. You can also try this with eggplant following the same procedure.
