• 1/2 tsp each salt and smoked paprika
• 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
• 2 large eggs (whisked)
• 1/2 cup flour
• 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
• 1/4 cup gorgonzola cheese

Preparazione

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Cut zucchini in half lengthwise, then slice into roughly ½ inch wide by 4 inch long fries (no need to peel them).

2. 2

   Combine panko, parmesan, salt, paprika, and pepper in a medium bowl. Place whisked eggs in a separate medium bowl, and the flour in a third medium bowl.

3. 3

   Working in small batches, dip zucchini pieces into the flour, then the egg, then the panko. Set on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.

4. 4

   When all zucchini are breaded, bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden and crispy.

5. 5

   Meanwhile, add yogurt, gorgonzola, mayonnaise, and chives to a food processor and blitz until smooth. Season to taste with ground black pepper.

6. 6

   Serve zucchini fries warm with dipping sauce.
