Notes

  • STORE. Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days or in the freezer for 6-8 weeks.
  • STORE. Store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days or in the freezer for 6-8 weeks.
  • To reheat. Broil them in the oven on low for 2-4 minutes, or place them in a preheated oven at 375°F for 5-7 minutes, until they are heated through. 
  • PREP AHEAD OF TIME. As with most fried foods, this zucchini is best when served immediately. You can prep the zucchini the day before and place the coated rounds on a plate. Cover it with plastic wrap, and store them in the fridge until you're ready to fry them.
  • AIR FRYER DIRECTIONS.  Preheat your air fryer to 350 degrees F.  Prepare zucchini according to the directions above, then place a single layer of zucchini slices in the air fryer.  Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until crispy.  Flip and cook on the other side if needed.
  • To reheat. Broil them in the oven on low for 2-4 minutes, or place them in a preheated oven at 375°F for 5-7 minutes, until they are heated through.
