Crispy Garlic Parmesan Zucchini

These crispy zucchini rounds are the kind of snack that disappears as soon as I put the platter down. They are golden on the outside, tender in the middle, and full of garlic and Parmesan flavor without needing to be deep-fried.

    Pat the zucchini rounds dry with paper towels.

    Whisk the egg and milk in a shallow bowl.

  4. 4

    In a second bowl, combine the panko, Parmesan, garlic powder, oregano, salt and pepper.

  5. 5

    Dip each zucchini round in the egg mixture, then press into the Parmesan breadcrumbs.

  6. 6

    Arrange in a single layer on the baking sheet and lightly spray or drizzle with olive oil.

  7. 7

    Bake for 12 minutes, flip, then bake for another 8–10 minutes until crisp and golden.

  8. 8

    Meanwhile, stir together all the dip ingredients.

  9. 9

    Serve the zucchini hot with the cool creamy dip.

Notes

For extra-crisp zucchini, salt the slices lightly and let them sit for 10 minutes, then blot away the moisture before breading.
