Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a sheet tray with parchment paper.
Finely grate the Parmigiano-Reggiano using a microplane or the small holes of a box grater.
Portion about 2 tablespoons of grated cheese per frico and gently shape into loose 3-inch rounds on the parchment-lined tray. Do not pack the cheese down. Leave space between each round.
Bake for about 6 minutes, until fully melted and lightly golden at the edges.
Remove from the oven and let the frico sit on the tray for 2–3 minutes to set and crisp.
Carefully lift with a spatula and let cool completely before serving.
