Why This Dish Is Worth Trying

This dish offers a fresh and healthy twist on a classic favorite. Using zucchini chips adds a light crunch without the heaviness of traditional tortilla chips. It’s a great way to enjoy bold flavors while sneaking in some extra veggies.

Kitchen Tips

- Slice the zucchini evenly to ensure all chips cook at the same rate.
- Bake the chips until they are crispy but not burnt for the best texture.
- Use a thick layer of cheese and toppings to prevent the chips from getting soggy too quickly.

Step 1

Trim the ends off the zucchini. Using a mandoline set to the thinnest slice, cut the zucchini into very thin rounds, about 1/8 inch thick. Lay the slices out on a plate lined with paper towels, then put another layer of paper towels on top and gently press to soak up any extra moisture.

Step 2

Arrange the zucchini slices on a cutting board and give them a light spray with cooking spray. Flip them over, sprinkle some taco seasoning on the other side, and spray lightly again. Place the slices, seasoned side up, on a microwave-safe plate, making sure they don’t overlap.

Step 3

Microwave the slices on high for about 2 and a half minutes. Carefully flip them over and cook for another 30 seconds. If you have more slices, repeat these steps until all are cooked.

Step 4

Divide the zucchini chips between two microwave-safe plates. Top them with black olives, chopped red onion, jalapeño slices, and shredded Cheddar cheese. Pop them back in the microwave for about 30 seconds until the cheese melts. Enjoy!

Best Foods To Serve With This

Serve warm with sides like guacamole, salsa, or sour cream for dipping. This dish works well as a snack or appetizer at gatherings. Pair it with a cold drink for a refreshing combo.

Storage Advice

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Reheat briefly in the oven to keep the chips crisp. Avoid microwaving, as it can make the chips soft and less enjoyable.
