Crispy Fried Zucchini

Ingrédients

• 2 medium zucchinis (, sliced into 1/4-inch thick rounds)
• 2 large eggs (, beaten)
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup panko breadcrumbs (, see note)
• 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• Salt and pepper (to taste)
• Vegetable oil (for frying)

Préparation

1. 1

   Prep: Add the flour and a pinch of salt and pepper to a shallow bowl. In the second bowl, beat the eggs. In the third, mix the breadcrumbs, parmesan, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and a bit more salt and pepper.

2. 2

   Dip: Dip the zucchini round in the flour. Then, dip it into the egg mixture. Finally, coat it generously with the breadcrumbs.

3. 3

   Fry: In a large skillet, heat about 1/2 inch of oil over medium heat. Once hot, fry the zucchini in batches. Fry until they’re golden and crispy, about 1-2 minutes on each side. Transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.

4. 4

   Serve while they’re warm and crispy with your favorite dipping sauce.
