Let’s dive in and explore this delightful dish, made even better with a tangy Greek yogurt ranch for dipping!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium zucchinis, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 large eggs, beaten

For the Greek Yogurt Ranch:

  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
  • 1 tbsp fresh chives, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Prepare the Zucchini: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Slice the zucchinis into thin rounds, about 1/4 inch thick.
  • Coating the Zucchini: In a shallow bowl, mix the panko breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. In another bowl, whisk the eggs.
  • Dip and Dredge: Dip each zucchini slice in the beaten eggs, then coat with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing lightly to adhere. Place the coated zucchini slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through to ensure even cooking.
  • Prepare the Greek Yogurt Ranch: While the zucchini chips are baking, whisk together all the ingredients for the Greek yogurt ranch in a bowl. Adjust seasoning to taste.
  • Serve: Serve the crispy zucchini chips immediately with the Greek yogurt ranch on the side for dipping.

Notes

To get the best texture, make sure to slice your zucchinis evenly so they bake uniformly. Thinner slices will result in crispier chips, while thicker ones will be slightly softer in the center. Also, flipping the chips halfway through ensures even browning.
