Crispy Parmesan Garlic Zucchini Fries
A tasty and healthier alternative to regular fries, these crispy zucchini fries are flavorful and easy to make. Perfect as a snack, side, or even a light main course.
Ingredients
Vegetable Preparation
- 2 medium zucchinis, cut into fries
Coating Mixture
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- Olive oil spray
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Cut the zucchinis into fries and set aside.
- In one bowl, place the flour. In another bowl, beat the eggs. In a third bowl, mix together the panko breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Coating
- Dip each zucchini fry first in the flour, then in the beaten eggs, and finally in the breadcrumb mixture, making sure they are well coated.
Baking
- Place the coated fries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and spray lightly with olive oil.
- Bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
- Serve hot and enjoy!
Notes
For extra crunch, double bread the fries. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days and reheat in the oven to retain crispiness.
