Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or spray it lightly with cooking spray.

Slice the zucchini into ¼-inch rounds.

In a mixing bowl, combine grated Parmesan, panko breadcrumbs, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.

Drizzle olive oil over the zucchini slices and toss until well-coated.

Press each zucchini slice into the breadcrumb mixture, ensuring both sides are well-coated.

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and crispy.

Remove from oven, cool for 5 minutes, and garnish with fresh parsley if desired before serving.
