Ingredients
Scale
2 medium zucchinis sliced into ¼ inch rounds
2 tbsp olive oil
½ cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp Italian seasoning
¼ tsp sea salt
¼ tsp black pepper
chopped parsley or lemon zest for garnish
Instructions
Heat your oven to 425°F 220°C and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
Cut zucchini into uniform rounds about ¼ inch thick.
In a bowl, coat the zucchini slices thoroughly with olive oil, parmesan, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
Lay the coated zucchini in a single layer on the baking sheet.
Bake for 18 to 20 minutes until the edges turn golden brown and get crispy.
If desired, add extra parmesan before serving warm.
Notes
Slice the zucchini evenly so all pieces bake at the same speed
For crispier edges, broil the zucchini for 1–2 minutes at the end
Use freshly grated Parmesan — it melts and browns better than pre-shredded
Add lemon zest or fresh parsley on top for a brighter flavor
