Ingredients Needed
Zucchinis: In the summertime, this recipe is perfect to use up any zucchini coming from your garden. But this recipe is good any time of year! Salt: I salt the zucchinis before cooking to remove excess moisture. It also helps to season the zucchini. All-Purpose Flour: Flour helps the egg and breadcrumbs have something to stick to! For gluten-free zucchini fries, use a gluten-free replacement flour! Egg Whites: Have less moisture and fat versus the whole egg and help to crisp up the zucchini fries. Panko Breadcrumbs: Panko breadcrumbs work well for a super crispy outer layer! Parmesan Cheese: Makes everything better! I add grated parmesan cheese to the panko breadcrumbs to create a cheesy breading. Spices: Season the breading to perfection with garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning and salt! Basil Garlic Mayo: I LOVE dipping these zucchini fries in a homemade basil garlic mayo made from mayo, garlic, basil, lemon, salt and pepper!
