Ingredients
-
1 medium zucchini (about 10 ounces)
Pinch salt
Pinch black pepper
Parchment paper
Tips
I prefer free flowing salt for this recipe since a little will go a long way! Feel free to change up or add additional spices or seasonings. Cayenne pepper, dried thyme, or rosemary will all work well with these chips.
Directions
Cut the unpeeled zucchini into 1/16 inch slices using a knife, the slicing blade of a food processor, or a mandoline.
Place cut slices onto paper towels, and pat them dry.
MICROWAVE INSTRUCTIONS: (UPDATED)
Place a sheet of parchment paper atop a microwave-safe plate.
Mist the zucchini slices with cooking spray, then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place each slice on the plate, being careful not to overlap the slices.
Microwave on high for up to six minutes, let rest for one minute, then cook another minute. You want to let the chips rest when they appear to be drying out but are not yet browned.
Remove any chips that have light brown spots and the cook remaining chips, if any, for one more minute. Repeat with the remaining slices using the same parchment. Cool completely before storing in an airtight container.
OVEN INSTRUCTIONS:
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the zucchini atop the parchment in a single layer, then mist with cooking spray.
Bake for 10 minutes, flip, then bake for another 10 minutes, or until the chips have reached the desired crispiness.
For crispier chips, use a wire rack instead of parchment.
Serving Size: Makes 4 servings, approximately 20 chips per serving.
Place cut slices onto paper towels, and pat them dry.

These turned out great for me! The only thing I have to say is don't season the chips until after they have cooked otherwise you might have WAY to much seasoning as the zucchini will shrink. (I learned that the hard way :) Also check them every once and a while to make sure they don't burn. - 7/13/15

Horrible don't waste your time and your zucchini! That picture is deceiving. Those look coated and deep fried. My burned in the oven and in the microwave. The pepper was horrible too. And to boot i cut my finger on my mandolin! please do not rate a recipe as being excellent unless you follow r - 9/18/13

I have a large zucchini sitting in my kitchen and was not sure what to do with it. The I saw this on the front page and thought "excellent!" Now that I have read the reviews, I don't think so. I will try this instead: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Zucchini-Chip

I just did some yummy zucchini chips in my dehydrator--I thin sliced my zucchini and soaked them in a little water seasoned with seasoning salt (you could experiment with flavors). I sprayed my trays w/PAM-they were very tasty--did soften up in storage, but think that might have been from the PAM - 9/1/13

OH my gosh! That's brilliant! I will have to use my oven and kinda bake them. Don't have a dehydrator...or paper bags...or parchment paper, but I do have an oven and two zucchinis that have to be cooked. I'm sure if I slice them thin, we can do something similar. Thanks so much for the inspiration! - 9/1/13
