3 Servings
Ingredients
- 2 medium zucchinis sliced into ⅛-inch rounds
- A pinch of kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 ½ c freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- Hidden Valley® Simply Ranch for dipping
Instructions
- Start by preheating your oven to 400°F. While it’s heating up, line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil. If you go the foil route, give it a quick spray with nonstick cooking spray to keep things from sticking. Set it aside for now.
- Next, slice your zucchinis into thin rounds, about ⅛ to ¼ inch thick. If you want them extra crispy, here’s a little trick: lay the slices out on a paper towel for about 20 minutes. Put another paper towel on top and press gently to soak up some of that extra moisture. It’s optional, but totally worth it!
- Now, arrange the zucchini slices in a single layer on your prepared baking sheet. It’s okay if they’re touching a bit because they’ll shrink while baking. Sprinkle a pinch of salt and pepper over them, then add a teaspoon of freshly grated Parmesan cheese on top of each slice.
- Slide the baking sheet into the oven and let the zucchini bake for about 20-22 minutes, or until you see those tops turning golden and perfectly crispy. Once they’re done, let them cool for a few minutes before transferring them to a plate.
- Serve them up with some Hidden Valley Simply Ranch for dipping, and enjoy!
