Ingredients
Zucchini & Preparation
- 2 medium Zucchini
Seasoning & Flavor
- 2 tsp Salt adjust to taste
- 1/4 tsp Chili Powder adjust to taste, red
- 1/4 tsp Pepper white
- 1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
Instructions
Prepare the Zucchini
- Wash and thoroughly dry 2 medium zucchini. Cut into 1/8-inch thick slices using a mandoline slicer or sharp knife for even cooking. Pat them completely dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Season and Grill
- Heat 1 tablespoon of butter (and optional olive oil) in a large grill pan or skillet over medium heat. Add the zucchini slices, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
Cook the Zucchini
- Season immediately with 2 teaspoons of salt. Cook the zucchini for 2-3 minutes per side, flipping occasionally, until tender and slightly golden. Avoid overcrowding the pan to allow for even cooking.
Add Spices and Finish
- Sprinkle red chili powder evenly over the zucchini during the last minute of cooking. Once the zucchini reaches your desired level of crispness, remove from heat and sprinkle with white pepper and garlic powder. Serve immediately.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Grilled Zucchini Chips
- Use a Mandoline Slicer: For perfectly even zucchini slices that cook uniformly, a mandoline slicer is highly recommended.
- Don't Overcrowd the Pan: Ensure there is space between each slice to allow for even grilling and browning.
- Pat Dry Thoroughly: Excess moisture will prevent the zucchini from crisping properly. Make sure the slices are completely dry before grilling.
- Adjust Spices to Taste: Feel free to adjust the amount of chili powder, salt, and pepper to match your preference.
