Using this type of broiler pan with a grid top, is what I recommend. You can line the bottom drip pan of the broiler pan with foil for easier cleanup. Then brush the grid top with oil.Then position one rack in the middle of your oven for baking the zucchini and the top rack so that the zucchini will be about 6-7 inches from the heating element for the final broiling step. Next preheat your oven to 425 ℉.
In a medium bowl, toss the zucchini with oil.
2 medium zucchini, 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Combine Parmesan, bread crumbs, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl. Dredge each round into the Parmesan mixture, on both sides until well coated.
1/4 cup grated Parmesan, 1/8 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon pepper
Place rounds on the grid top of the broiler pan.Bake for 15 minutes. Then move your pan to the top rack (about 6 inches from the heat source) and broil until golden, about 2-3 minutes. Remove with spatula and serve.
Notes
Are there any alternative seasonings or herbs I can add to customize the flavor of the chips? Customize the flavor by adding herbs like thyme, rosemary, or oregano to the breadcrumb mixture. Garlic powder or paprika can also enhance the taste.
Is it possible to make these chips without using Parmesan cheese? Yes, If you'd like to make them dairy-free, you can make these chips without Parmesan cheese. Just double the breadcrumbs.
How can I store leftover zucchini chips? While it's best to enjoy them fresh, you can store Baked Zucchini Chips in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven for a few minutes to restore crispiness.
