Instructions
- Cut the zucchini. Use a sharp knife to cut your zucchini in half long ways, and then each half in half again. Cut them in half widthwise to make 8 sticks total out of each zucchini that are about 4 inches long and ½ inch thick.
- Season your flour. In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, and pepper. Toss the zucchini sticks in the flour mixture until well coated.
- Prepare the breadcrumbs. In a separate large bowl, combine breadcrumbs and parmesan cheese.
- Bread the zucchini. One by one, coat the floured zucchini sticks in the egg and then roll it into the breadcrumb mixture. Set them aside to a platter or wire rack so that they are all ready to cook.
- Prepare your air fryer. Spray your air fryer with a cooking spray or use a non-stick liner.
- Cook. In batches, cook the zucchini fries in a single layer in your air fryer on 350°F for 10 mins.
- Make the sauce. In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, dill and garlic powder and refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Serve. Serve your zucchini fries warm with dipping sauce on the side.
Notes
- Don’t overload: It can be tempting to cook all of them at once, but doing so causes them to cook unevenly, leaving some with a mushy middle or not so crisp edges.
- Get the block of parmesan: I highly recommend getting a fresh block of parmesan cheese. Grating manually will be worth it, trust me.
- Cut the pieces evenly: Cut the zucchini in equal slices. This ensures that they will all cook evenly in the same amount of time.
