Ingredients

  • 2 medium zucchinis
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 225°F (110°C) and set a rack in the middle. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Thinly slice the zucchinis using a mandoline slicer to ensure uniform thickness, which helps them cook evenly.
  3. In a large bowl, gently toss the zucchini slices with olive oil until fully coated.
  4. In a small bowl, mix sea salt, garlic powder, paprika, black pepper, and dried oregano.
  5. Arrange the zucchini slices on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they don’t overlap.
  6. Sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over the zucchini slices.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 2 hours, turning the slices halfway through, until they are golden brown and crisp.
  8. Allow the chips to cool on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy your healthy zucchini chips!

Helpful Tips

  • For an extra kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the spice mixture.
  • If you don’t have a mandoline slicer, a sharp knife will work, but try to keep the slices as even as possible.
  • Storage: Keep any leftover chips in an airtight container for up to 3 days to maintain their crispiness.
  • Ingredient Substitutions: You can use yellow squash instead of zucchini for a slightly different flavor.

Pairings

These zucchini chips are perfect on their own but can be paired beautifully with a light yogurt dip or fresh salsa. For a complete healthy snack spread, serve them alongside carrot sticks, cucumber slices, and hummus. Freshly squeezed lemonade or a cool cucumber mint water makes an ideal refreshing drink to accompany these crispy delights.
