Parmesan Zucchini Chips with Harissa
Parmesan Zucchini Chips are made even more flavorful with harissa powder!
Ingredients
- 1 zucchini
- 1 teaspoons olive oil
- ¼ teaspoon harissa powder
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- ⅓ cup Parmesan cheese plus more for serving
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- Slice the zucchini into rounds ¼ inch thick. Place slices in a medium bowl.
- Grate ⅓ cup Parmesan cheese.
- Add olive oil, salt, and harissa powder to the bowl. Toss to combine, making sure all zucchini is coated with the harissa and olive oil.
- Place zucchini slices on a baking sheet in a single layer. Add a bit of the grated parmesan cheese to the top of each zucchini slice.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, until zucchini is tender and roasted.
- Switch oven to broiler. Broil for 3-4 minutes, watching closely until cheese is crispy and browned.
- Remove from the oven ad plate. Top with more freshly grated Parmesan if desired.
Notes
- All ovens cook differently, check to make sure your zucchini is tender before removing from the oven. When using your broiler, also keep a close eye on your zucchini.
- Freshly grated parmesan cheese works best with this recipe. I highly recommend keeping a wedge of parmesan cheese in your refrigerator. I love using a microplane to grate the cheese.
- If you want to slightly amp up the spice level, add an additional ¼ teaspoon harissa to the zucchini.
- If you slice your zucchini a little thinner, it will still work, but won't be as sturdy as if you slice it thicker. I have found that around ¼ inch works best.
