  • Total Time: 2 hours 10 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2–3 medium zucchinis, thinly sliced
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 2–3 garlic cloves, minced
  • ½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon cracked black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning (optional)

 

  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  • Preheat Oven – Set your oven to 225°F (107°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Slice the Zucchini – Use a mandoline slicer or sharp knife to cut the zucchini into thin, even slices (about 1/8-inch thick).
  • Remove Moisture – Lay the slices on a paper towel and pat them dry to remove excess moisture.
  • Prepare Garlic Butter – In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
  • Coat the Zucchini – Toss the zucchini slices in the garlic butter mixture until evenly coated.
  • Arrange on Baking Sheet – Place slices in a single layer, making sure they do not overlap.
  • Sprinkle with Parmesan – Generously top each slice with grated Parmesan cheese.
  • Bake Slowly – Bake for 2 hours, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.

 

  • Cool and Serve – Let the chips cool slightly, then garnish with fresh parsley and enjoy!

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, use a wire rack on the baking sheet to allow air circulation.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
  • Avoid microwaving for reheating—use an oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5 minutes to restore crispiness.

 

  • Try different cheeses like Pecorino Romano or aged Asiago for a new twist.
