Crispy Garlic Parmesan Zucchini Chips with Zesty Dipping Sauce

Ingredients

For the Zucchini Chips:

1. 2 large zucchinis
2. 2 cups bread crumbs (230 g)
3. ¾ cup parmesan cheese, grated (80 g)
4. ⅓ cup fresh basil, chopped (10 g)
5. 1 tablespoon garlic powder
6. ½ teaspoon salt
7. 1 teaspoon black pepper
8. 1 ½ teaspoons red pepper flakes
9. 2 eggs

For the Dipping Sauce:

1. ⅓ cup mayonnaise (80 g)
2. 1 tablespoon lemon juice
3. 1 tablespoon garlic powder
4. ½ teaspoon salt
5. 1 teaspoon black pepper

Guidelines:

1. Get the courgette ready: Set the oven temperature to 425°F (220°C). Cut the zucchinis into rounds that are thin—roughly 1/4 inch thick. While you’re making the breading mixture, set them aside.
2. Prepare the Breading Mixture by combining the bread crumbs, garlic powder, chopped basil, grated parmesan cheese, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes in a medium-sized bowl.
3. Coat the Zucchini: Beat the eggs until smooth in a separate dish. After letting any extra egg mixture drop off, dip each zucchini slice into it and coat it in the breading mixture. To make sure the breadcrumbs adhere nicely, gently press them onto the zucchini. After coating, arrange the zucchini slices on a baking sheet covered with paper.
4. Bake the Zucchini Chips: Bake the chips for 20 to 25 minutes, or until they are crispy and golden brown, in a preheated oven. To guarantee uniform browning, turn the chips halfway through the frying process.
5. Make the Dipping Sauce: Prepare the dipping sauce during the baking of the zucchini chips. Mix the mayonnaise, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl until well blended. If needed, adjust the spice to taste.
6. Serve: Take the baked zucchini chips out of the oven and let them to cool a little. Serve the spicy garlic dipping sauce beside the heated chips. If desired, add more finely chopped parmesan or basil as a garnish.
