Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Trim the ends of the zucchini and then slice into rounds about ¼ inch thick. Whisk the egg white in a small bowl. Mix the remaining ingredients in another small bowl until combined.
Dip the zucchini rounds into the egg white to coat both sides then using a fork, scoop the zucchini rounds into the panko bread crumb mixture and flip both sides, gently pressing the bread crumbs into the zucchini. Place in rows on the baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the tops are golden and crisp.
Serve immediately with homemade ranch dressing.
