Ingredients
  

2 medium zucchini, sliced into rounds (about 1/4-inch thick)

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1/2 cup breadcrumbs (preferably panko for extra crunch)

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon onion powder

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped (optional for garnish)

1 large egg, beaten

Cooking spray or olive oil for drizzling

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

    Prepare the Breading Mixture: In a medium bowl, combine the grated Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt. Mix well to ensure all the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.

      Coat the Zucchini Slices: Dip each zucchini slice into the beaten egg, allowing any excess to drip off. Then, coat each slice in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing lightly to adhere the crumbs well. Place the coated zucchini bites on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.

        Bake the Zucchini Bites: Lightly spray the tops of the zucchini bites with cooking spray or drizzle with a little olive oil to help them crisp up. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through for even cooking.

          Garnish and Serve: Once the zucchini bites are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Optionally sprinkle with fresh parsley for an added burst of color and flavor. Serve warm as a delicious appetizer or side dish.
