  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (30ml)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder (4g)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Slice zucchini into 1/2-inch rounds and lay on a paper towel; sprinkle lightly with salt to draw out moisture.
  3. In one bowl, mix breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. In another bowl, drizzle olive oil over the zucchini slices.
  4. Dip each zucchini slice in olive oil then coat with the breadcrumb mixture before placing them on the baking sheet in a single layer.
  5. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through for even cooking.
  6. Allow to cool slightly before serving warm.
