Description
These Cool Ranch Zucchini Chips are thinly sliced, lightly crisped, and coated in a bold blend of garlic, dill, and herbs. A flavorful, crunchy snack that feels indulgent but is made with fresh zucchini and simple pantry spices.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 medium zucchini, about 500 grams, thinly sliced into rounds
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried dill
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 120°C and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Wash and thinly slice the zucchini into even rounds about 2 to 3 millimeters thick.
- Pat the zucchini slices dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
- In a large mixing bowl, toss the zucchini slices with olive oil until lightly coated.
- In a small bowl, combine garlic powder, onion powder, dried dill, dried parsley, salt, black pepper, and paprika.
- Arrange the zucchini slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet without overlapping.
- Sprinkle the seasoning mixture evenly over the slices.
- Bake for 90 to 120 minutes, flipping the slices halfway through, until they are dry and lightly crisped.
- Allow the chips to cool completely on the baking sheet to firm up further.
- Serve immediately or store in an airtight container.
Notes
- Slice the zucchini evenly for consistent crisping.
- Do not overcrowd the baking sheet to prevent steaming.
- If chips soften after storage, reheat at 150°C for 5 to 10 minutes.
- For extra flavor, add a small pinch of red pepper flakes to the seasoning blend.
