Ingredients
  

2 medium zucchinis

1 cup breadcrumbs (Panko preferred for extra crunch)

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

2 large eggs

1 tablespoon olive oil

Cooking spray or additional olive oil for baking

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray it with cooking spray or drizzle with a little olive oil to prevent sticking.

    Prepare the Zucchini: Wash and dry the zucchinis. Cut off the ends, and slice them into thin strips, about 1/4-inch wide, to resemble fries.

      Set Up Breading Station: In a shallow bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan, minced garlic, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. In another bowl, beat the eggs with the tablespoon of olive oil until well mixed.

        Coat the Zucchini: Dip each zucchini strip into the egg mixture, allowing any excess to drip off. Then, coat it in the breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently to ensure the crumbs adhere well. Place the coated zucchini fries on the prepared baking sheet.

          Bake the Fries: Arrange the zucchini fries in a single layer on the baking sheet, making sure they are not overcrowded. Lightly spray the tops with cooking spray or drizzle with a bit of olive oil.

            Bake to Perfection: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, turning the fries halfway through the cooking time. They should be golden brown and crispy.

              Serve: Once done, remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as marinara or ranch dressing.

                Enjoy these addictive Crispy Garlic Parmesan Zucchini Fries as a side dish, snack, or party appetizer!
