Fried Zucchini Sticks
I must warn you the following is yet another zucchini recipe! 3....2...1... Are you still there ? Oh good you are, I promise this one is a keeper. If you’ve got a bunch of zucchini you have to use up or you just can’t get your family to eat zucchini, this is your recipe! Even the pickiest non vegetable eater will love these crispy coated bites of hot zucchini goodness.
3 small to medium zucchini, sliced into sticks
2 large eggs, beaten
1/2 cup flour
1 cup panko or bread crumbs
4 Tbsp. grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
Salt and pepper, to taste
In a small bowl, beat eggs with a fork until frothy. In another bowl, place flour, and in a third bowl, place your bread crumbs. Toss the breadcrumbs with garlic powder and Parmesan cheese, salt and pepper and set aside.
Dip the zucchini sticks into the flour, then egg, and then into the bread crumb mixture. Make sure all sides get coated well..
I fried them in olive oil( just enough to cover the sticks about 2 inches). When the oil is hot, working in batches, fry the zucchini sticks until they are golden brown, and crispy about 3 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the fried zucchini to paper towels and drain.
Sriracha Mayo Dip
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons Sriracha
pinch of salt
Stir all ingredients together. Keep in fridge until serving.
**Serve with a dipping sauce of your choice the measurements were all "guesstimates" Adjust the amounts of panko, flour and eggs to the amount of zucchini you have.
