Ingredients:
- 2 medium zucchinis, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (panko or regular)
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning (or a mix of dried oregano, basil, and thyme)
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- Cooking spray or oil mister
Instructions:
Prep the Zucchini:
- Wash and dry the zucchinis. Slice them into thin rounds, about 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick.
Create the Coating Mixture:
- In a shallow bowl, combine breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to evenly distribute the flavors.
Coat the Zucchini Slices:
- Dip each zucchini slice into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off. Then, coat the zucchini slice with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere the coating.
Preheat the Air Fryer:
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.
Arrange on the Air Fryer Basket:
- Lightly grease the EaZy MealZ Air Fry Crisper Basket with cooking spray or use an oil mister. Arrange the coated zucchini slices in a single layer, making sure they don't overlap.
Air Fry the Zucchini Chips:
- Air-fry the zucchini slices for about 8-10 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time. The chips should be golden brown and crispy.
Serve:
- Once the zucchini chips are cooked, transfer them to a plate. Serve them immediately for the best crispy texture.
