Zucchini Chip Nachos Recipes

Steps:

• Cut zucchini into 1/4-inch slices using a mandoline slicer. Place slices in a colander, sprinkle with salt, and toss to coat. Let drain for 30 minutes. Place slices on a clean kitchen towel and pat dry.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a 12x18-inch baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and saute until translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. Add chicken and cook until lightly browned, breaking meat up into small crumbles, 5 to 6 minutes. Drain and discard any accumulated liquid.
• Return skillet to low heat and stir in chili powder, paprika, cumin, garlic powder, salt, oregano, and black pepper. Keep warm.
• Place zucchini slices on the prepared baking pan in a single layer.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes.
• Remove zucchini from oven and top with chicken mixture and shredded Cheddar cheese. Return to the hot oven and bake until cheese is melted, 2 to 3 minutes more.
• Top nachos with dollops of sour cream, pico de gallo, jalapeno, and green onions. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• 1. Slice zucchini (summer squash) into 1/4 inch sliced, a mandolin slicer works best for this. Lay out on rack and paper towels, lightly salt and let mosture wick away while assembling remaining ingredients
• 2. Brown ground beef with chopped onions, bell peppers and spices.
• 3. On a silicone screen or aluminum foil bake zucchini slices at 400 for 10-15min till lightly browned, turn slices and bake an aditional 5-10 min
• 4. Assemble meat mixture in a flat layer on oven safe plate, sprinkle top with chopped green onions and pepper slices (hot or mild, your choice
• 5. Place zucchini slices in a single layer across the top of meat, onions and peppers
• 6. Sprinkle with cheese and place under broiler till cheese has melted
• 7. Serve with salsa (roasted corn salsa goes great) and sour cream on the side, ENJOY!!!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
• Arrange sliced zucchini on a baking sheet. Drizzle lightly with olive oil and sprinkle lightly with sea salt.
• Bake in the preheated oven until completely dried and chip-like, about 1 hour per side. Allow to cool before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Place zucchini in a bowl. Drizzle olive oil over zucchini and lightly toss to coat; season with salt. Spread zucchini onto a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Adjust 2 oven racks to the top and bottom thirds of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F. Put the wire racks in the baking sheets and coat each generously with cooking spray.
• Combine the flour and 3/4 teaspoon salt in a large re-sealable plastic bag. Combine the eggs and 3/4 teaspoon salt in another large plastic bag; combine the breadcrumbs and 3/4 teaspoon salt in a third large plastic bag.
• Add about a half of the zucchini rounds to the flour, and use a combination of your hands and shaking the bag to coat the zucchini. Remove the zucchini and shake off any excess flour. Transfer to the egg wash and repeat until coated. (It's less messy if you use only one hand for the dry ingredients and the other for the wet.) Let any excess egg drip off before transferring to the breadcrumb mixture; repeat until fully coated (you'll still see some green and white of the zucchini peeking through the breading). Transfer to the prepared baking sheets and coat the breaded zucchini generously with cooking spray (there's no need to turn them). Repeat with the remaining zucchini.
• Bake, rotating the baking sheets from top to bottom about halfway through, until golden brown and tender, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Lower the oven to 350 degrees F and let the baking sheet cool for a few minutes. Remove the rack from one of the baking sheets and line the baking sheet with foil. Slide the baked zucchini onto the baking sheet and scatter the cheese and jalapenos on top. Bake until the cheese melts, about 10 minutes. Thin the sour cream out with a little water, until it's pourable, and drizzle over the nachos. Then garnish with the pico de gallo, avocado, radish and cilantro. Serve with lime on the side.
