Ingredients

• 2 medium zucchinis, thinly sliced
• 1 cup of breadcrumbs
• 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour
• 2 large eggs, beaten
• 2 tablespoons of olive oil
• 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
• Salt and pepper to taste
• For the dipping sauce:
• 1/2 cup of Greek yogurt
• 1 tablespoon of lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon of chopped dill
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Preheat your Air Fryer to 350°F (180°C).
2. In a shallow bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
3. Place the flour in a separate shallow bowl, and the beaten eggs in another.
4. Dip each zucchini slice first in the flour, then in the eggs, and finally in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
5. Lightly brush or spray olive oil on both sides of the breaded zucchini slices.
6. Place the zucchini slices in a single layer in the air fryer basket.
7. Cook for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the zucchini chips are golden brown and crispy.
8. While the zucchini chips are cooking, mix together all the ingredients for the dipping sauce in a small bowl. Adjust seasoning to taste.
9. Serve the air-fried zucchini chips immediately with the ultimate dipping sauce on the side.

Tips and Tricks

• Substitute breadcrumbs with crushed cornflakes for a crunchier texture.
• Add paprika to the breadcrumb mixture for extra flavor.
• For a gluten-free version, use almond flour and gluten-free breadcrumbs.
• If you don’t have an air fryer, you can bake the zucchini chips in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
