Zucchini Fries Recipe
Description
This recipe starts by cutting zucchini into spears and allowing them to dry after rinsing. A blend of panko breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, basil, oregano, and garlic salt is prepared in a bag. The zucchini pieces are dipped in beaten eggs and then tossed in the breadcrumb mixture to create a flavorful crust.
The coated zucchini fries are arranged on a foil-lined baking sheet and sprayed with olive oil to promote even browning and crispness. Baking at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 16-20 minutes produces a golden crust while keeping the inside tender. The Parmesan and herbs add savory, aromatic notes to the fries.
These zucchini fries are best served warm alongside dips such as ranch dressing or marinara sauce. The recipe offers a vegetable-based snack or side dish with a crunchy texture reminiscent of traditional fries but with lower starch content.
