Ingredients

  • 1 medium zucchini washed and dried
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon paprika

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the oil, salt, pepper, onion powder, and paprika. Stir to combine.
  3. Thinly slice the zucchini with a knife or mandolin.
  4. Add the zucchini slices to the bowl and toss well so that each slice is coated with the seasoned oil.
  5. Place the zucchini slices on the prepared baking sheets.
  6. Bake for 8-15 minutes watching very closely. When the zucchini starts to show some brown spots remove from the oven and set aside.
  7. Reduce the oven temperature to 180-200 degrees. Return the zucchini to the oven and cook for an additional 20-40 minutes or until the slices are crispy.
  8. Remove from the oven and cool.

Notes

  • Watch the color of the slices very closely during the initial baking time. When they start to show some brown spots, immediately remove them from the oven and set them aside. Finish cooking at the lower temperature for an additional 20-60 minutes or until the slices are crispy. Keep checking every 10 minutes.
