Crispy, flavorful roasted courgette bites perfect for a healthy snack. These are seasoned with a blend of spices for a satisfying kick.
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Wash and dry the courgettes. Trim the ends and cut them into 1/2-inch thick rounds or half-moons.
In a large bowl, toss the courgette slices with olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, chili powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
Arrange the courgette slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
Roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until tender and slightly browned around the edges. Watch closely to prevent burning.
Remove from oven and let cool slightly before serving. Serve immediately for the best texture.
Nutrition per serving (160g)
For extra crispy courgettes, broil for the last 2-3 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.
Add a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese during the last 5 minutes of roasting for a cheesy flavor.
These are best enjoyed immediately, as they will soften as they sit.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, but they won't be as crispy.
