- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 cup parmesan cheese (grated)
- 0.5 teaspoon salt

Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Wash and dry the zucchinis. Slice them into 1/4-inch thick rounds to resemble potato slices.

Arrange the seasoned zucchini slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they do not overlap.
Step 6
Sprinkle grated parmesan cheese evenly over the top of the zucchini slices.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the zucchini is tender and the parmesan cheese is golden and crispy.
