Cut one zucchini into rounds that are between a ¼ inch (.635 cm) to ⅛ of an inch (.3175 cm) thick, place them all in a single layer and season them with sea salt & black pepper

Add ½ cup all-purpose flour into a large bowl, along with ½ tsp baking powder, 1 tsp garlic powder, ½ tsp onion powder and ½ tsp sweet smoked paprika, mix the dry ingredients together, then add in ½ cup cold water and whisk together until you get a creamy batter with no lumps

Add 1 cup breadcrumbs into a separate bowl, season with a ¼ tsp (1.5 grams) sea salt and mix together

Heat a large fry pan with with medium heat and add in ½ cup sunflower oil

While the oil is heating, coat the slices of zucchini, first into the batter and then into the breadcrumbs, making sure they are evenly coated

After heating the oil for about 5 minutes, start adding the coated slices of zucchini into the pan, make sure they´re all in a single layer, cook in batches, after 75 to 90 seconds flip to cook the other side, after another 75 to 90 seconds remove them from the pan and transfer to a dish with paper towels

While the zucchini bites are still hot, finely shred in some Manchego cheese over them

Continue to cook your zucchini in the same method until done

Once all the zucchini bites are ready, sprinkle them with freshly chopped parsley and serve at once, enjoy!
