Zucchini Fries

It’s spring and I am looking forward to zucchinis. I have many zucchini recipes and today I am going to teach you how to make zucchini fries, which are absolutely delicious, healthy (no deep-frying) and addictive. Trust me, once you have tried my Parmesan Zucchini Fries recipe, you will be hooked!

What I love most about this recipe is how easy it is. It calls for a few simple main ingredients and there is no deep-frying involved:

Fresh zucchinis
Japanese panko bread crumbs
Parmesan cheese
Eggs

You can make Zucchini fries plain but Parmesan cheese is the secret ingredient. Zucchini has a very mild taste so you definitely need the cheese to jazz up the flavors. Plus, Parmesan cheese will make the bread crumb coating extra crispy!

It does take a bit of time coating the zucchinis with the Parmesan-panko mixture but it is certainly a lot more easier than deep-frying. I love serving them with ranch dressing, which is amazing with the crispy fries. Enjoy!

Calories 152 kcal

Ingredients

3 small zucchinis about 12 oz
2 eggs
Pinch of salt
Ground black pepper
2 cups Japanese panko bread crumbs
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Ranch dressing

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425F. Slice the zucchinis into 3-inch length by 1/2-inch thick strips. In a bowl, add the salt and 3 dashes of ground black pepper to the eggs, beat well. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
In a big plate or container (not bowl), mix the panko and Parmesan cheese together. Working in batches, drop some zucchini strips into the beaten eggs. Then take each zucchini strip out of the egg mixture, shaking off the excess before rolling with the panko mixture, pressing gently to coat well. Transfer the zucchini strip to the baking sheet. Repeat the above until done.
Bake, rotating sheets and turning the zucchino fries half way through, until golden brown and crispy, about 20 to 25 minutes. Serve immediately with Ranch dressing.

Zucchini Fries look great. I was just gifted an AIrFryer, so I will have to try this recipe soon. Do you have other ‘air fryer’ recipes? The zucchini fries were the first I had seen from you. Thx!
