Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.<\/li>\n<li>Prepare the zucchini: After shredding the zucchini, place it in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out as much liquid as possible. This is important to prevent the bites from becoming soggy.<\/li>\n<li>Mix the ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the drained zucchini, grated garlic, breadcrumbs, grated Parmigiano-Reggiano, egg, and chives. Mix everything until well combined.<\/li>\n<li>Shape the bites: Using a spoon or your hands, form the mixture into small balls or nuggets (about 1 tablespoon each) and place them on the prepared baking sheet.<\/li>\n<li>Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for about 18\u201320 minutes, or until golden brown and set, flipping them halfway through for even browning.<\/li>\n<li>Serve: Let them cool slightly and serve warm.
