fried zucchini recipe

Instructions

1. Prepare the zucchini

1. Wash and slice the zucchinis into even rounds.
2. Pat them dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture—this helps them crisp up.

2. Set up a breading station

• Bowl 1: Mix flour, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
• Bowl 2: Beat the eggs.
• Bowl 3: Mix breadcrumbs and Parmesan cheese.

3. Coat the zucchini

1. Dredge each zucchini slice in flour, shaking off the excess.
2. Dip into the beaten eggs.
3. Coat evenly with the breadcrumb mixture.

4. Fry

1. Heat about ¼ inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
2. Fry the zucchini in batches for 2–3 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy.
3. Remove and drain on paper towels.

5. Serve

• Serve hot with marinara sauce, ranch dressing, or a squeeze of lemon juice.

If you want, I can also give you a baked version that’s just as crispy but much healthier.

Do you want me to do that?
